Psychopharmacology
Medication is an additional intervention that can be integrated into treatment. As psychiatrists, we have expertise in psychopharmacology, in particular for the treatment of mood and anxiety disorders, depression, and other psychiatric symptoms. Through a holistic approach to wellness, we view each patient as a whole rather than a single symptom to be treated.
Medication can often be helpful in ‘taking the edge off” and getting “unstuck.” Neuroimaging studies and clinical trials have found that medications, such as serotonin selective reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) can induce plasticity in neural networks that allow for greater efficacy and progress in therapy.
If medication could be beneficial for your treatment plan, we can discuss options with you and provide ongoing management. The goal is to optimize your overall well-being by integrating medication with therapy.
As academic psychiatrists, we continually review clinical trials and are up-to-date on the most effective evidence-based treatment options to deliver the highest level of personalized treatment.
