Medication for Mental Illness
Benzos, and stimulants, and SSRIs… Oh my!
Do you feel like your stress, excessive worry, fatigue, sadness, anxiety, or agitation is beginning to affect your quality of life? Has your mental health impacted your ability to work or maintain interpersonal relationships? Do you feel that psychotherapy is not enough anymore?
Then medications may help to provide the relief you need. Our providers at Cerebrum focus exclusively on our patient’s mental and physical well-being, and work as an integrated team to provide stability and care.
At Cerebrum, we provide psychiatric evaluations and medication management services for ages 13 and up. We focus on many areas of mental health including anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, mood disorders, addiction, eating disorders, and PTSD. We treat an array of disorders and provide telemedicine appointments to better accommodate our patients who have busy schedules.
We understand that medication management can be scary, especially if you don’t know what to expect. We take the time to provide an individualized treatment approach to ensure that our patient’s symptoms are being addressed prior to choosing a medication.
Our providers will present many treatment options and guide you towards the best course for your own, unique presentation. We educate our patients on all areas of medication to ensure you feel comfortable starting or stopping a course of medication.
We also educate on the importance of medication adherence to ensure therapeutic efficacy. Prior to the end of your appointment you will have a full understanding of what to expect when taking your medication. Our goal is to work closely with you and other members of your treatment team, to help better determine your goals, and work towards improving your overall quality of life with minimal side effects.
