HOW WE PRACTICE

Medication is one part of the care.

A prescription is a decision you make with a clinician who has heard your history. We start by listening, explain what we know about the options and their risks, and change one thing at a time.

  • Listening first

    Visits leave time for your history, your sleep, your work and what you have already tried before anyone suggests a change.

  • The whole picture

    Alcohol, caffeine, other medicines and supplements all change how a medication works for you, so we ask about them.

  • Your other clinicians

    With your permission we share notes with your therapist and your primary care clinician, so no one works from half the picture.

THE JOURNEY

From first request to follow-up.

A first visit for the evaluation, then follow-ups to see how things are going.

  1. 01

    Step 1: Request a visit

    Send a message or call. The office confirms a time, tells you what to bring and explains how your visit will be billed.

  2. 02

    Step 2: First visit

    A long conversation with your prescriber about your history, your current medicines and your goals. Any decision about medication comes after the evaluation.

  3. 03

    Step 3: Follow-up visits

    Shorter visits to see how a medication is going and what you have noticed. Your prescriber changes one thing at a time and explains why.

  4. 04

    Step 4: Steady care

    As the plan settles, visits can be spaced further apart. You stay with the same prescriber.

A quiet place to wait.

Soft light, low sound and room to sit.
