Behavioral Health

Yes. Because our providers work as one team, your behavioral health treatment plan is shared with your primary care provider, so medication changes or new diagnoses don't get missed elsewhere in your care. This is especially important if you're managing a physical condition alongside a mental health concern, since certain medications and conditions can interact in ways that are easier to catch when one team sees the whole picture. You won't need to repeat your history at every appointment.

Yes. Our TelepsychHealth platform extends the same behavioral health providers into virtual visits, so you can continue therapy or medication management remotely if that's more convenient. Many patients alternate between in-person and virtual visits depending on their schedule, without losing continuity with their provider.

A full evaluation typically involves more than one step, combining questionnaires, a clinical interview, and sometimes input from family members or teachers. Your provider will walk you through the specific timeline during your first visit. Because ADHD symptoms can overlap with anxiety, depression, or sleep issues, a thorough evaluation helps make sure the diagnosis, and any resulting treatment plan, is actually accurate.

Both. Our behavioral health team offers medication management alongside therapy, and many patients benefit from combining the two. Your provider will discuss which approach, or combination, fits your situation. Some patients start with therapy alone and add medication later if needed, while others prefer to start both together — there's no single right order.

You and your provider will build a treatment plan together, which might include therapy sessions, medication, or both. Follow-up visits let us adjust that plan as your symptoms change over time. How often you're seen after that initial visit depends on your specific situation, ranging from weekly check-ins during an adjustment period to periodic visits once things have stabilized.

There's no strict cutoff, but a few signs are worth paying attention to: symptoms lasting more than a couple of weeks, difficulty functioning at work or in relationships, changes in sleep or appetite, or simply feeling like something isn't right even if you can't quite name it. You don't need to meet a specific severity threshold to schedule an evaluation — many patients come in simply because they want an outside perspective on what they've been experiencing. If it turns out professional support isn't needed right now, that's a useful outcome too, and your provider will be honest with you about that rather than recommending treatment you don't need.

You can schedule directly with our office, in person or through our TelepsychHealth virtual visits, without needing a referral. Let our team know generally what's prompting the visit, whether that's ongoing anxiety, a mood change, or an ADHD evaluation, so we can make sure enough time is scheduled and, when relevant, connect you with a provider who focuses on that area. Your first appointment is about understanding your situation, not filling out forms, so you can expect a real conversation from the start.
