New Patients: Are We a Good Fit?
We Will Probably Work Well Together If…
This practice often works well for adults who:
Are looking for outpatient psychiatric care that includes thoughtful medication management as well as non-medication strategies
Appreciate a collaborative, unhurried approach to care
Are open to discussing lifestyle, behavioral, and therapeutic factors alongside medication when appropriate
Are seeking ongoing support and stability, rather than urgent or crisis-level care
Value clear communication and reliable follow-up
There Are Times When Another Type of Care May Be More Supportive…
Like all outpatient practices, Crystal Clear Mental Health is designed to support certain levels of care.
At times, individuals may benefit more from a different setting or additional supports, such as when:
Ongoing crisis management or intensive case coordination is needed
There are active psychotic symptoms that require specialized services
Ongoing high-dose or multiple-daily benzodiazepine prescribing is requested
Frequent between-visit contact or urgent availability is required
Court-ordered or disability evaluations are required
In these situations, I’m happy to help guide you toward resources that may be better suited to your needs.
