Figtree Mental Health provides medication management services to help our clients achieve long-term mental health stability. Our team of psychiatrists works closely with clients to understand the underlying causes of mental health issues and develop effective medication plans tailored to each individual’s needs.

What Is Medication Management?
Psychiatric medication management services help properly assess and monitor mental health medications in an effort to improve the overall well-being of individuals living with a mental health condition. This type of mental health service includes regular visits with a psychiatrist in order to evaluate how medications are working and make adjustments as needed. Commonly, psychiatrists will prescribe various medications, like antidepressants or mood stabilizers, to help control mental health symptoms.
The goal of medication management services is to ensure that psychiatric medications are working as effectively as possible and can be adjusted quickly if someone’s mental health deteriorates. A psychiatrist will also typically discuss lifestyle changes, such as diet, exercise, or sleep habits, with their clients in order to maximize the effectiveness of medication management services.
The Benefits of Medication Management Services
While many people may feel nervous about taking psychiatric prescriptions, medication management services can provide many benefits. These include:
- Increased stability – Medication management services help individuals living with mental health conditions find a more stable emotional state by providing the correct medications in the correct doses.
- Reduced risk of side effects – A psychiatrist will carefully monitor medications to ensure they are being taken correctly and at appropriate levels to reduce the risk of side effects.
- Improved quality of life – Medication management services can help individuals better manage their mental health symptoms and improve their overall quality of life.
At Figtree Mental Health, we understand that medication management services can be a vital part of recovery for many individuals living with mental health conditions. We are committed to providing personalized care and support to help our clients achieve long-term mental health stability.
Medication Management Works with Other Services
Medication management and mental health services work together to provide comprehensive mental health care. While medication management focuses on prescribing and monitoring medications to help manage symptoms, mental health services provide a space for clients to process their feelings, gain insight into their condition, and build coping skills. Together, these services form a holistic approach to treating mental health conditions that can be highly effective.
