Psychiatric Services

We use Psychotherapy Matters, which is a holistic mental health care platform designed with your needs in mind. Our primary focus is on collaboration, ensuring that you are at the center of your care journey. With the platform, you can request psychiatric consultations where your psychotherapist can attend and support you. By uniting the expertise of both your psychotherapist and a psychiatrist, we provide a comprehensive and effective approach to mental health care. This collaboration ensures that you receive personalized treatment that considers all aspects of your well-being.

Clinicians Jay, and Bernadette offer psychiatric consultations to clients. Using the platform PMVC, the clinicians are able to provide collaborative care involving a virtual meeting with the client, therapist, and psychiatrist.

PMVC joint sessions enable your therapist to work collaboratively with you, your primary care physician, and a psychiatrist. This service is available for clients ages 16 and up.

Psychiatrists are medical doctors who specialize in mental health issues. They differ from other mental health professionals because they can provide clinical diagnoses, suggest medications and monitor them to ensure the patient is feeling their best.

The psychiatrist will only be present via video conferencing. With your consent, the psychiatric consultation will occur in your therapist’s office if you prefer (and conform with your ST provider), while your therapist is present in the room or online with you.

Why do a PMVC session?

This type of session can benefit clients from providing possible options for things such as virtual diagnosis, medication recommendations, among others, all provided within the comfort of the therapy environment.
