Services
Whether you’re seeking help for the first time or taking a fresh look at your current treatment, we’ll work together to understand your concerns and find a path forward.
Dr. Shields offers medication management and medication management with therapy for adults and adolescents ages 14 and older.
These visits focus on understanding your symptoms and making thoughtful medication decisions together. We’ll discuss your options, monitor benefits and side effects, and make adjustments as needed.
When appropriate, therapy can be integrated into medication management visits. Alongside reviewing your medication, we’ll make space to explore stressors, recognize patterns, and develop coping strategies that support your daily life.
Getting Started
Start with a 15-minute phone conversation to share what you’re looking for, ask questions, and discuss whether the practice is a good fit.
If we move forward, a 90-minute evaluation gives us time to understand your history, concerns, and goals, and discuss a treatment plan together.
Typically 30 minutes, follow-up visits focus on how you’re doing, your treatment progress, and any adjustments to your care.
