Psychotherapy and Psychoeducation with each visit

Psychotherapy, or talk-therapy, is a powerful treatment for many mental complaints. It offers the benefits of improved interpersonal relationships, stress reduction, and a deeper insight into one’s own life, values, goals, and development. It requires a great deal of motivation, discipline and work from both parties for a therapeutic relationship to be an effective one. Patients will have varying success outcomes depending on the severity of their complaints, their capacity for introspection, and their motivation to apply what is learned when outside of sessions.

Appointments in Our Comfortable Office/ Nurse Practitioner Consultation

Our compassionate providers understand mental illness. They bring years of knowledge, experience, and wisdom to share. They are also personally invested in providing the best mental health care in the area. Patients seeking outpatient, in office mental health care are encouraged to call our office to schedule an appointment at their convenience. We accept most major insurances.

Psychiatric Evaluations and Diagnoses per DSM 5 Criteria

Mini Mental Status Exam and Psychiatric Mental Status Examinations will be completed with each visit. DSM-5 (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) Criteria will be referenced when making new diagnosis. DSM and ICD10 codes will be noted in Visit Summary.  Additional tools such as GAD-7, PHQ9, CAGE, COWS, etc can also be used. 

Competent, Efficient, and Timely Care

Patients may request their individual patient records in our office setting. We take our responsibility as providers seriously and make every effort to be transparent and efficient with our records,

Additionally, we strive to ensure that all progress notes are completed within seventy two hours of each patient visit.

Behavior Modification Services

We have providers who are Dementia certified. This certification allows them to offer extensive non pharmacological interventions so patients can enhance their quality of life and decrease the risk of disease progression.

Acute Crisis Management

Sometimes Hospital admissions are necessary, especially if the patient is in harm of themselves or others. There are times when providers feel that urgent referral to a higher level of care is necessary. In this event, we strive to maintain patient dignity and privacy at all times, and allow patients to make as many individual choices as possible.

Crisis Interventions will be shared with patients families and a list of hospitals will be provided for the patient, family and healthcare professionals to choose from. In case of an emergency, the patient will be sent to the closet hospital. 

Medication Review and Management with each visit to prevent unnecessary medications

In the outpatient setting, psychiatric medications, including hypnotics, will be reviewed with each visit. Medications may be changed pending adverse effects or when maximum dose has no optimum effect. Dose reductions are attempted annually to achieve optimal medication dosage level.  Our goal is to prescribe the least amount of medication possible “less is more”, to prevent poly pharmacy. Labs will be ordered as needed to monitor medication dosage levels or for acute symptomology.

Outpatient Medication Management with Our Unique Approach

Our providers have taken multiple courses in advanced pharmacology and have experience managing multiple pharmacological agents and formulating correct diagnoses. However, is the fundamental belief of OwlBridge Wellness that “less is more”. Our providers strive for dose reduction and medication elimination whenever possible, and we believe this makes us unique. We are also very invested in seeking out correct diagnoses for our patients for long term health and recovery.

Resources for Healthcare Staff and Community Contacts

At OwlBridge Wellness, we consider education services to be an important benefit that we can provide. In-services can be provided to healthcare team members, staff of facilities, and members of our local community. We can also recommend nonpharmacologic resources, such as, pet therapy, cpr, yoga, cpi, etc, which can result in improved patient outcomes.

Education and Resources for Patients and Families

At OwlBridge Wellness, we strongly believe in patient advocacy, education, and empowerment.  We feel that it is vital to equip those that trust us with their care with as much education and understanding as possible. If you choose us for your mental health care you will find that we integrate patient education with every visit. This is consistent with our motto is “Seek Wisdom, Seek Wellness”
