Psychiatric Medication Management
Psychiatric medication management services are a collaborative process between a patient and their healthcare provider to ensure the safe and effective use of medications to treat mental health conditions. At Psychology Services of Alaska, we work together with you and your other healthcare providers to empower you in your mental health journey.
Providers, refer your patients for a therapy consult here.
Medication Management
Our medication management services can include:
- Medication initiation: Starting medications for new clients
- Medication continuation: Continuing medications for existing clients
- Medication monitoring: Monitoring the dosage and efficacy of medications
- Medication adjustment: Adjusting medications to optimize benefits and minimize side effects
- Treatment planning: Developing an individualized plan of care
What Can I Expect?
Medication management services are often used in conjunction with other therapeutic interventions such as talk therapy. Mental health conditions and overall physical health are closely connected, so your overall health and daily habits may also be explored.
During your initial visit your provider will gather your physical and mental health history, review and previous and current diagnoses and analyze past and current medications. You will also discuss any symptoms you still experience while taking your current medications and talk about side effects that have or can occur.
Your provider will answer any questions you may have about medications and other mental health concerns. We will also coordinate with any other healthcare providers participating in your care.
