Who We Treat

Discovery Psychiatry provides mental health services for Children ages (6-17) and adults ages 17 and up. We believe mental health does not only affect the individual, but often also their loved ones. Having a strong support system is crucial for patients with mental health conditions. Research has shown that having a support system such as a family support system in mental health treatment is critical for improving patient outcomes, reducing relapse rates, and fostering long-term recovery. However, we also understand that at times, individuals with mental health conditions might not be privileged enough to have that needed strong support team to help them thrive, and this is where we hope that the team at Discovery psychiatry can be a support system to you. If you or your loved one are suffering from mental health conditions such as depression, suicidal feelings, anxiety, bipolar, PTSD, obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic attacks, or any other mental health challenges and needing a professional consultation, CALL (469) – 497 – 5378.

Clinical Services

Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation

Your initial visit with us will often start with a thorough mental health evaluation, which is comprised of a detailed assessment questions covering your current symptoms, personal/family history, and lifestyle. This typically can take about an hour. It is through this thorough evaluation that we are able to arrive at a diagnosis or diagnoses.

Medication Management

Medication is essential for the treatment of mental health. Research has shown that effective mental health medication management requires a combination of psychotherapy and medication, shared decision-making between patient and the clinician, and consistent monitoring to optimize and manage side effects. Our goal is to incorporate evidence-based, patient preferences, and clinical expertise in the decision process of starting a medication. And if you are already on an effective medication regimen, we will continue with it. We will educate you about the benefits, risks, and other alternative methods to medications.

Psychotherapy and psychoeducation

Psychotherapy is simply talk therapy. The goal of this therapy is to help you identify and change troubling thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Psychoeducation involves teaching you essential information concerning your mental health conditions. Our goal at Discovery Psychiatry is not just to diagnose and treat, we also want to educate our patients about their conditions and medications, and about lifestyle changes that can help alleviate mental health symptoms. Psychoeducation is essential for mental health treatment. And the team at Discovery Psychiatry believes that an educated patient is an empowered patient, and that's what we strive for.
