Ketamine Clinics Los Angeles Adds Medication Management to Service Offerings in Addition to Ketamine Infusions
LOS ANGELES, July 19, 2022 (Newswire.com) - Ketamine Clinics Los Angeles (KCLA), a premier ketamine clinic located in Southern California, now offers medication management services for patients. This important service will be overseen by a team of certified psychiatrists, and is part of KCLA's ongoing commitment to providing mental health care while reducing the stigma associated with mental health disorders.
Medication management is important for many individuals struggling with mental health conditions. However, determining the correct medication(s) and dosage(s) is both an art and a science that requires clinical expertise to ensure optimum treatment outcomes. By offering patients in-house medication management, KCLA hopes to reduce barriers to treatment, provide comprehensive care, and further their success in helping individuals achieve relief from mood disorders.
The KCLA psychiatric staff is available to answer questions about medications for mental health disorders, or other general psychiatric questions. With double and triple-board certifications, KCLA is building out their top tier team with compassionate and qualified clinicians. Common medication questions that may be addressed include:
● Will medication alter an individual's personality? No, mental health medication will not fundamentally change who a patient is. Appropriate medication management ensures that patients feel more like themselves, rather than less.
● Are mental health medications addictive? Research shows that most mental health medications have very low abuse potential and are safe for long-term use when taken as directed.
● Is medication supposed to be an easy fix? No. Results often require additional therapies and the development of new coping skills—all of which take time.
KCLA is dedicated to providing patients with evidence-based solutions to mood disorders and is pleased to expand upon their specialty of utilizing ketamine for depression. Fostering a collaborative care model where patients benefit from the experience and compassion of a group of providers, KCLA's treatment outcomes are among the best in their field. KCLA is pleased to add this new service and intends to add more treatments soon so patients can enjoy quality service and continuity of care across their treatment journey.
