Help & FAQ
General Questions
Is my privacy protected?
Absolutely. We follow strict HIPAA guidelines, and your information is never shared without your consent (except in safety emergencies).
Can I include my family in treatment?
Of course! With your permission, we welcome family sessions—especially for teens, couples, or caregivers seeking to support your progress.
Can I switch providers if I don’t feel it’s the right fit?
Yes. Your comfort and trust are essential to your healing process. If you feel another provider might be a better match, we’ll gladly help you transition within our team or offer referrals. No hard feelings just honest support.
Do you treat children and adolescents?
Yes, we provide psychiatric care for children and teens. We are experienced in supporting young people through challenges like ADHD, anxiety, school stress, and family transitions with compassion and age-appropriate strategies.
What if I’ve tried therapy or medication before and it didn’t help?
That’s okay, and it’s more common than you think. We take time to understand what worked and what didn’t. With updated treatments, fresh insight, and a collaborative approach, there’s often a path forward, even if past efforts fell short.
Will I need to take medication forever?
Not necessarily. Medication is one tool among many. Some people use it short-term; others find long-term benefits. Our goal is to regularly review your progress and adjust your treatment plan based on how you feel not just a calendar.

How long does treatment take?
Healing isn’t one-size-fits-all. Some patients see improvement in a few weeks, while others benefit from longer-term care. We’ll regularly check in to adjust your plan as needed.

Yes, our psychiatrists can prescribe and manage medications when appropriate. We focus on minimizing side effects while maximizing benefits, always in partnership with you.
