What is psychiatry?

Psychiatry aims to diagnose, treat, and prevent mental health disorders. Unlike other types of therapy, psychiatry often involves medical interventions, such as prescribing medication, in addition to providing psychotherapy or counseling.

Your Mind & Soul Therapy & Acupuncture providers have specialized training in mental health, allowing them to understand the complex relationship between the mind, body, and behavior.

What issues can psychiatry address?

Psychiatry is useful for addressing a wide range of mental health issues, including:

• Depression: persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, or a lack of interest in activities
• Anxiety disorders: conditions like generalized anxiety, panic disorder, or social anxiety
• Bipolar disorder: characterized by extreme mood swings, from mania to depression
• Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD): emotional and psychological distress following a traumatic event
• Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD): repetitive thoughts and behaviors that interfere with daily life
• Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD): a condition affecting focus, self-control, and other behaviors

If you have concerns about any of the above, schedule an appointment with the Mind & Soul Therapy & Acupuncture mental health team to get the help you need and deserve.

What can I expect during a psychiatry appointment?

During your first psychiatry appointment, you can expect a comprehensive evaluation. Your mental health specialist asks about your medical history, current symptoms, lifestyle, and any medications you’re taking. They might also ask about your family history of mental health issues.

After your initial assessment, they discuss their findings with you and propose a treatment plan. This might involve prescribing medication, recommending therapy, or suggesting other interventions. You’ll also have the opportunity to ask questions and discuss any concerns.

Follow-up appointments typically focus on monitoring your progress, adjusting your treatment plan as needed, and ensuring you’re moving toward your mental health goals.
