Psychiatric Evaluations & Medication Management in Seattle
Medication can be an important part of mental health care. At Morina Counseling, our psychiatric Nurse Practitioners provide thoughtful evaluations and ongoing medication management for clients navigating anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, sleep issues, and more.
We take time to understand your symptoms, history, lifestyle, and goals so your care feels collaborative, informed, and personal.
Medication Support That Looks at the Whole Person
Medication management is not one-size-fits-all. Your provider will take time to understand what you are experiencing, what has helped or not helped in the past, and what you hope will feel different.
If medication is recommended, your provider will explain your options, answer questions, discuss potential side effects, monitor your progress, and make adjustments when needed.
The goal is not just to prescribe medication. The goal is to help you make informed decisions about care that supports your mental health, daily life, and overall well-being.
What We Offer
Medication Management
Medication management provides ongoing support after a medication plan is started. Your provider will monitor how medication is working, discuss side effects, adjust dosage when appropriate, and continue evaluating whether the treatment plan is still the right fit.
Medication management may be helpful for clients who are beginning medication, changing medications, returning to care, or looking for more consistent support.
Ongoing care may include:
- Reviewing symptoms and progress
- Discussing side effects or concerns
- Adjusting dosage when needed
- Considering medication options
- Coordinating care with therapy when appropriate
- Supporting long-term mental health goals
ADHD Evaluations
Morina Counseling offers ADHD evaluations for clients experiencing concerns with focus, attention, organization, impulsivity, follow-through, or executive functioning.
An evaluation can help determine whether ADHD may be part of what you are experiencing and whether medication or other support may be appropriate.
ADHD-related concerns may include:
- Difficulty focusing
- Trouble starting or finishing tasks
- Disorganization
- Forgetfulness
- Impulsivity
- Restlessness
- Feeling overwhelmed by daily responsibilities
Psychiatric Evaluations
