Consultative Assessments | Psychotherapy | Medication Management
Dr. Cook provides initial assessments with recommendations which may include psychotherapy, medication management, or both therapy and medication.
During the initial evaluation, Dr. Cook will take a comprehensive psychiatric and medical history, social and family history, and learn from you in detail what your needs and goals are. With your input, she will then provide a recommended treatment plan. Her recommendations could include continuing treatment with her or referrals to providers outside of her practice if appropriate.
Consultative Assessments
Your current provider may recommend an assessment to ensure optimal care. Dr. Cook welcomes collaboration with other providers, such as your therapist or your primary care physician. She will discuss this in detail with you and provide release of information forms.
Medication Management
Dr. Cook provides medication management for a variety of disorders. She can continue previously prescribed medications if appropriate if you transferred your care, or will initiate or adjust medications as indicated.
Psychotherapy
Dr. Cook predominantly takes a psychodynamic, relational approach for psychotherapy to explore how your past experiences, relationships, and unconscious thoughts shape your feelings and behaviors today. Through open and supportive conversations, you & Dr. Cook will uncover patterns which may influence how you see yourself and others.
This approach treat symptoms, but also allows you to gain insight — helping you understand yourself more deeply, improve relationships, and make meaningful changes in your life. This approach moves at your pace and focuses on creating a safe, trusting space to explore whatever feels most important to you.
