Our psychological counseling and testing services are available for patients who are curious about how their particular symptoms may meet specific diagnostic criteria. It could be the case that based on an individual’s psychiatric history, symptomatology, or otherwise unique experiences a specific diagnosis can be uncovered which may more accurately guide the psychiatric and therapeutic services they seek.

This could include:

• Trying new, more suitable medications given the particular diagnosis
• Being directed to alternative services from traditional medication management (ECT, TMS, Esketamine, etc.)
• Trying new therapeutic modalities with greater evidenced-based efficacy for certain diagnoses or symptoms
• Coming to learn and understand how to cope with previously unrecognized learning, social, emotional, and executive

Psychological counseling offers patients problem-solving skills and guidance on how best to manage psychological conditions. This would be different from therapy wherein a specialist helps their patient to understand their emotions, while counselors focus more on methods and techniques which can help a patient manage their symptoms and improve functionality.
