Medication Management Q&A
What is psychiatric medication management?
Prescription medications can help with many mental health conditions. In some cases, medications are only needed for a short period of time. However, people with a chronic mental health problem may need medication to manage their symptoms for the rest of their life.

What happens at medication management appointments?
Initial medication management consultations at Healthy Minds NYC are 60 minutes long. During your initial meeting, your psychiatrist conducts a psychiatric evaluation to fully understand your mental health needs and goals.
If you are already taking prescription medication, they also ask about the type and dose of the medication you take, how well it works, and what side effects, if any, the medicine causes. Your psychiatrist then provides you with the prescription you need. Or, they may start you on a new medication based on your symptoms and new health goals.
Follow-up medication management appointments occur monthly and take 30 minutes.
If appropriate, you may meet with your psychiatrist through the telepsychiatry service for your follow-up visits. Healthy Minds NYC uses HIPAA-compliant software to protect your confidentiality during your video sessions.
