Electronic prescriptions are sent directly to your local pharmacy.
Psychiatry focuses primarily on the biological, neurological, and medical dimensions of mental health—including comprehensive diagnosis, laboratory testing, and prescription medication management. Therapy (psychotherapy) focuses on talk-based processing of emotions, behavioral patterns, and coping tools. At New Dawn, our clinicians integrate supportive psychotherapy into our medication visits and collaborate closely with your existing therapist.
