The prevailing research indicates that the best approach to mental health care treatment involves a combination of psychotherapy and medication management.
At Portland Mental Health & Wellness, we integrate psychiatric naturopathy and allopathic medications for a comprehensive approach to treating mental health symptoms like depression, anxiety, and trauma-related distress.
Understanding the role of psychiatric medications is crucial for your treatment, and we are dedicated to providing personalized care. Our licensed practitioners take time to learn about your medical history and current or past medications. This process requires patience and open communication to ensure your well-being and optimal dosage.
There are risks with any medication, including side effects and interactions. Our practitioners monitor your response to minimize these risks. Over time, we will adjust or discontinue medications as needed, ensuring your safety.
Starting a new medication is a personal decision. Our team, including your psychotherapist, will support you throughout your treatment, working together to achieve your overall well-being and growth.
