1 | Psychiatric Diagnostic Assessment
2 | Psychotherapy
3 | Medication Management
4 | Clinical Therapy
A Psychiatric Diagnostic Assessment is a comprehensive evaluation conducted by a mental health professional to understand an individual's emotional, psychological, and behavioral health. This assessment is the first step in developing a personalized treatment plan and involves gathering detailed information about your mental health history, current concerns, and overall well-being.
Psychotherapy, often referred to as talk therapy, is a collaborative and evidence-based approach to addressing emotional and mental health challenges. At Enlightenment Psychiatry, psychotherapy is provided by our skilled Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioners (NPs), who bring a unique blend of clinical expertise and compassionate care to help you navigate life’s difficulties.
Medication management is a key component of comprehensive mental health care, provided by our skilled psychiatry professionals. This service involves a thorough evaluation of your mental health needs, followed by personalized recommendations for medication as part of your treatment plan.
Clinical therapy is a professional, evidence-based approach to improving mental health and emotional well-being. Through guided conversations and therapeutic techniques, individuals work with licensed therapists to explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, address challenges, and develop strategies for personal growth and healing. This process is tailored to each person’s unique needs, providing a safe and supportive environment to foster lasting change.
Psychotherapy vs. Clinical Therapy: What’s the Difference?
If you’re exploring mental health support, you might come across the terms psychotherapy and
clinical therapy—and while they’re often used interchangeably, there are a few key differences. Both are valuable and often overlap. Our team is here to guide you toward the right fit for your unique path to healing.
Psychotherapy is often referred to as "talk therapy." It is the process of working through emotional, behavioral, or psychological challenges by talking with a trained mental health professional. It includes a variety of approaches, mindfulness-based therapy, and trauma-informed care.
The focus is on understanding your experiences, developing healthy coping strategies, and fostering personal growth.
Clinical Therapy, on the other hand, refers more specifically to therapy provided by a licensed clinician in a clinical setting. Clinical therapists not only provide psychotherapy, but also assess, diagnose, and create structured treatment plans based on your mental health needs.
Clinical therapy is often part of a broader healthcare approach, which may include collaboration with medical providers or medication management.
Psychotherapy & Medication Management:
A Comprehensive Approach
True healing often requires a whole-person approach. That's why we offer an integrated approach that combines psychotherapy and medication management to support your mental health journey.
Psychotherapy provides a supportive space to explore your thoughts, emotions, and life experiences. It helps you build coping skills, process challenges, and gain insight into patterns that may be impacting your well-being.
​
Medication management, on the other hand, focuses on the biological aspects of mental health. We work with you to find the right medications, monitor their effects, and make adjustments as needed to help stabilize mood, reduce symptoms, and support your overall progress.
​
When used together, therapy and medication work hand-in-hand to support your healing.
Medication can help ease symptoms and create the stability needed to fully engage in therapy, while therapy addresses the deeper emotional patterns and life experiences that medication alone may not resolve. Together, they offer a more complete path to lasting wellness.
