Services
Psychiatry Services
Our psychiatry services provide comprehensive care combining medication management with behavioral interventions. Licensed psychiatric nurse practitioners evaluate mental health conditions like depression, anxiety, and mood disorders to develop personalized treatment plans. We emphasize psychological safety while avoiding controlled substances with abuse potential, focusing instead on sustainable wellness strategies through regular follow-up appointments and lifestyle modifications.
Psychological Assessment
We conduct thorough psychological assessments for clients aged 8+ to diagnose mental health conditions and guide treatment. Services include cognitive testing, personality evaluations, and diagnostic interviews performed by licensed psychologists. Assessment results inform personalized treatment plans and support academic or employment accommodations, with comprehensive feedback sessions explaining findings and recommendations for ongoing care.
Individual Therapy
Individual therapy sessions address personal mental health goals through evidence-based therapeutic approaches. Clients work one-on-one with licensed counselors to develop coping strategies, improve emotional wellbeing, and address specific concerns. Weekly 55-minute sessions typically form the initial treatment plan, with session structure and duration adjusted based on individual progress and needs.
Neuropsychological Testing
Specialized neuropsychological testing evaluates cognitive functioning for medical concerns like dementia, traumatic brain injury, and memory disorders. Our licensed psychologists administer comprehensive assessments measuring attention, concentration, and cognitive abilities across multiple testing sessions. Results help diagnose neurological conditions and develop targeted intervention strategies for improved mental functioning.
Couples Counseling
Couples counseling helps romantic partners improve communication and resolve relationship challenges. Therapists facilitate sessions focused on conflict resolution, intimacy building, and shared goal setting. Treatment plans incorporate skill-building exercises practiced outside sessions, with flexible scheduling accommodating both partners' availability to maximize therapeutic effectiveness.
