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 Bensalem, PA 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 Bensalem 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.
Psychiatry is a branch of medicine that aims to diagnose, treat, and prevent behavioral and mental health disorders. A psychiatrist is a specialized medical doctor within that branch. These mental health care professionals have the training and experience to treat mental disorders’ physical and mental aspects. They can also offer treatment in the form of therapy as well as medication.
Psychiatric providers can often be found working in government, non-profit settings, hospitals, universities, within the military, and at your Thriveworks office in Bensalem, PA! You may benefit greatly from working with a psychiatric provider at Thriveworks in Bensalem, PA if you are experiencing symptoms of a mental health condition. Our psychiatry staff can meet with you virtually after booking your appointment with one of our friendly scheduling assistants. We typically can provide you an appointment within the same week as scheduling.
Psychiatric providers treat various mental health issues and disorders that greatly disturb a person’s mood, behavior, or thinking and negatively affect a person’s daily life and quality of living.
We all have bad days from time to time, and we also experience grief and loss. Our reactions to these experiences, whatever they may be, are normal. However, if symptoms don’t get better for an extended period of time, it might be a good idea to seek an experienced and compassionate psychiatric provider’s professional assistance.
Here are just a few mental disorders and behaviors a psychiatric provider can help treat:
Every client will have different needs, so there is no standard treatment for mental disorders. Even people with the same diagnosis will have different experiences, needs, and goals for treatment.
Your psychiatric provider will want to first meet with you and have a chance to hear about your symptoms, medical history, and any other experiences or events that may play a role in how you think and feel.
A treatment plan may involve psychotherapy (also known as talk therapy), medication, and relaxation or mindfulness exercises a client can work on outside of counseling sessions. A course of treatment may involve cognitive behavioral therapy where the client explores his or her past experiences, relationships, thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and learns how new, constructive ways of thinking will produce healthier behaviors and beliefs.
If you’re interested in learning more about how a psychiatric provider may be able to help you overcome any emotional, psychological, or behavioral challenges you might be currently facing, then consider Thriveworks in Bensalem, PA. Our psychiatric nurse practitioners have the training, skills, and experience to help you thrive once again.
