Tailoring Your Mental Health Journey
Placid Psychiatry completes comprehensive psychiatric evaluations to determine types of treatment you may require including medication management and therapy. We listen to how your symptoms manifest in daily life, assess whole-body health, and explore how pharmaceuticals may help.
Medication Management to Restore Quality of Life
Managing your mental health isn’t something you should go alone. You may be experiencing a chemical imbalance in your brain that can’t be addressed with therapeutic coping mechanisms. Prescription medications can promote balance, with the goal of restoring your quality of life.
Ease Your Symptoms and Reclaim Control
As the shame and stigma of talking about mental health fade, comes acceptance and understanding. This includes self-acceptance and relieving yourself of the pressure to manage your symptoms solo. A comprehensive evaluation will determine types of treatment plan including medication management and therapy you may need.

Begin Your Journey
Your psychiatrist and mental health team will likely use medication as the initial method to treat your depression. Each individual responds differently to medication, so it is our goal to help you find the perfect fit with your treatment plan.

How Can Mental Health Medications Help?
There are a range of medications to consider depending on your diagnosis and symptoms. Most work to boost the “feel good” neurotransmitters in your brain. Many improve neuroplasticity, helping your brain to create pathways that support healthier thoughts, emotions, and actions.
