“We seek to promote wellness, relieve suffering, and improve quality of life in a safe, empathic, and flexible manner”
BeCalm Psychiatry provides psychiatric evaluations and medication management of a wide range of mental health issues. The focus of treatment is on medication management, however, we practice with the belief that people should not be on medications permanently. Medications can be a very useful tool to help alleviate moderate-severe symptoms and maintain a high level of functioning. This allows clients to have the opportunity to learn and use mood improving and harm reduction skills, so that they do not have to take medications forever.
Genetic testing, aka, neuropsychiatric pharmacogenomic testing, is also used when starting or changing medications to ensure optimal treatment.
We support and encourage wellness practices, ie. Therapy, exercise, nutrition, mindfulness, breathing techniques, etc.
Our goal is to help each client start the beginning of the rest of their lives in a more positive, productive, and peaceful way.
