Psychiatry Services How Do I Get Started with Psychiatry at Think Happy Live Healthy? 

​

At Think Happy Live Healthy, our psychiatry services are designed to help individuals manage mental health conditions through a combination of medical expertise and compassionate care. Unlike traditional therapy, which usually focuses on talk-based strategies to address emotional and behavioral concerns, psychiatry involves the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mental health disorders using both therapeutic and medical approaches, including medication management. Our board-certified psychiatrists work closely with patients to develop personalized treatment plans that support their mental, emotional, and general wellbeing.

​

Psychiatry Services Offered

Our experienced psychiatrists provide a range of psychiatry services to meet diverse mental health needs. Like other types of support provided at Think Happy Live Healthy, individual psychiatry care plans are developed in cooperation with a psychiatrist to ensure clients receive the support they need. Available psychiatry services include:

  • Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluations – an in-depth assessment to diagnose mental health conditions and create tailored treatment plans.

  • Medication Management – careful monitoring and prescription of medications to support mental health treatment.

  • Psychotherapy and Counseling – therapy sessions integrated with psychiatric care to address emotional and behavioral challenges.

  • ADHD & Behavioral Health Management – evidence-based treatments for individuals struggling with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and behavioral challenges.

  • Support for PTSD & Trauma – trauma-informed psychiatric care to support patients as they cope with the effects of traumatic experiences.

  • Ongoing Mental Health Support – long-term care to maintain and improve overall mental health stability.

​​
