Yes, we offer comprehensive psychiatric services to meet your mental health needs.
Psychiatry allows people struggling to manage mental conditions or disorders to get access to medications that will make daily functioning easier, as well as work through any mental factors that might be causing or worsening their condition. Though medications can’t cure mental disorders, medication can make symptoms more manageable, making the process of psychotherapeutic treatment easier and more effective. Psychiatric care can be available through in-person psychiatry and online psychiatry, depending on where you live and your own preferences. However, psychiatric providers at Thriveworks in Columbus, OH specifically offer online psychiatry to their clients.
A therapist has an education specifically rooted in therapeutic practice, approaches, techniques, and treatment. They cannot prescribe medications for clients, though they often refer clients to psychiatrists for medication management. Psychiatrists are medically trained doctors who specialize in mental health treatment, mainly through medication management and prescription, though they can also practice therapy.
A Psychiatry Nurse Practitioner (NP) is a highly trained and licensed professional who specializes in mental health care. They are qualified to diagnose and treat mental health conditions, prescribe medications, and provide therapy. Psychiatric NPs at Thriveworks are qualified to prescribe medications for a variety of mental health conditions. They work closely with you to develop a personalized treatment plan.
Oftentimes, psychiatrists or psychiatric professionals will perform a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, which involves an in-depth discussion about your symptoms, medical history, and current medications. Once they reach a diagnosis, they may suggest starting certain medications depending on your condition and the intensity of your symptoms.
Yes. At Thriveworks, we offer online-only psychiatry services for optimal comfort and convenience.
Psychiatric services at Thriveworks Columbus can last for as little or as much time as the client needs to reach their treatment goals, whether that be a month or two or over the course of a year. Treatment length is heavily dependent on the condition(s) being treated, the course of treatment, and the client’s goals for treatment.
Psychiatrists are mental health professionals who can prescribe anxiety medication and provide therapeutic treatment for anxiety, although not all psychiatrists offer therapy. At Thriveworks, medication management occurs via online psychiatry sessions.
Yes, Thriveworks accepts most major insurance plans. We strive to make mental health care accessible and affordable for everyone.
Some people find comfort, understanding, and even rejuvenation in discussing their problems with a family member or trusted friend. But friends and family don’t typically have the level of education and training in mental health issues in order to make a lasting impact. For that reason, it’s often better to seek counsel from a mental health professional such as a psychiatrist. It can be an important step toward living a happier life.
If you have symptoms of anxiety, depression, or another mental health disorder, a psychiatric nurse practitioner is a great place to start. At Thriveworks, our trained professionals can help you learn more about the symptoms you’re facing and customize a treatment program to restore balance to your life. When you’re ready to consult with a psychiatric nurse practitioner, call Thriveworks in Columbus, OH to set up an appointment.
Confronting symptoms of mental illness can be frightening. You might not understand the feelings; you might even believe you are to blame for having them. Licensed psychiatrists are trained to help in precisely these kinds of situations.
Psychiatrists and other psychiatric providers specialize in the study, treatment, and prevention of mental health issues. They treat a variety of mental, emotional, and behavioral health disorders that range in both symptoms and severity from addiction to substance abuse issues, anxiety disorders, depression, and eating disorders. They also treat those with self-identity issues, trauma, phobias, and more.
Symptoms of mental illness can emerge over time or spark from a single triggering event. You may not even understand when or why an issue began, knowing only that you are experiencing symptoms and that they are interfering with your life.
Here are some symptoms that might prompt you to consult with a psychiatrist:
A psychiatric provider can help you navigate these symptoms and their effects. When you’re ready to consult with a professional, consider making an appointment at Thriveworks in Columbus, OH.
