What is psychiatry?
Psychiatry focuses on diagnosing and treating mental health conditions, often including medication management. Unlike therapy, which centers on talk-based support, psychiatric care includes medical evaluation and, when appropriate, prescription treatment. Many families combine therapy and medication for comprehensive care.

Our approach to medication
Medication is never one-size-fits-all. Our psychiatric clinicians take a careful, measured approach.
Comprehensive evaluation before prescribing
Every patient receives a thorough diagnostic assessment before any medication is considered
Evidence-based treatment guidelines
All prescribing follows current clinical research and pediatric best practices
Lowest effective dose
When medication is appropriate, we start conservatively and adjust based on response
Ongoing symptom tracking and follow-ups
Regular check-ins to monitor progress, side effects, and overall wellbeing
Collaboration with parents and pediatricians
With consent, we coordinate with your child's existing care team for seamless support
Medication is never required
Not every child or teen needs medication. When it is recommended, it's part of a broader care plan designed to support long-term wellbeing

Frequently asked questions
Yes. Our licensed psychiatric clinicians can prescribe medication when it's right for your child, with ongoing monitoring and follow-ups.
Therapy gives your child a safe space to meet with a licensed therapist. They share their feelings, learn coping skills, manage stress, and practice strategies that fit their age. Psychiatry focuses on whether medication would help. Psychiatric providers are medical professionals who evaluate symptoms, prescribe when appropriate, and check in regularly to make sure it's working. Therapy and psychiatry often work together. Whether you start with one or both, we're here every step of the way.
Yes! Our therapists and psychiatric providers work closely as a team to offer the very best care. With your permission, they share clinical notes so your child receives coordinated, whole-person support — without having to retell their story.
We work with many insurance plans and also offer transparent self-pay options. During sign-up, our team will verify your benefits and walk you through any costs ahead of time. You can check to see if your insurance is covered at www.emorahealth.com/start.
Yes. Parents and guardians are welcome at any session, and for kids under 18 a parent has to be present for the initial assessment. The most effective care for kids involves the whole family: parent check-ins, clear guidance, and help understanding the diagnosis along the way. We treat families as partners, not observers.
Most patients have follow-up visits every 2–4 weeks initially, and then at clinically appropriate intervals. Regular monitoring ensures safety and effectiveness.
We conduct routine check-ins to assess symptom response and potential side effects. Adjustments are made thoughtfully and collaboratively with families.
Treatment plans are not static. If a medication is ineffective or causes side effects, your clinician will adjust dosage, consider alternatives, or revisit the diagnosis.
No. Medication is only recommended when clinically appropriate. Many patients receive therapy alone, while others benefit from combined care.
Yes. With consent, we collaborate with pediatricians and other providers to ensure comprehensive, coordinated care.
