What is Medication Management?

Medication management is the process of working with a licensed medical provider to evaluate, prescribe, and monitor medications for mental health concerns. This includes diagnosing conditions, choosing the right medication, checking for side effects, and making adjustments over time.

At Palisades Counseling, we integrate this service right into your care plan—so you can move easily from therapy to medication support without needing to find a separate provider.
