Deanette James provides medication management to adults, 18 and over. Her office is a safe space for all individuals currently navigating a chaotic life and needing additional support. She is very much aware that the decision to take medications for stabilization of one’s mental health can be very daunting. While medications may be suggested based on your history, it is purely your decision to start and/or continue these medications.
Rest assured that during the initiation, continuation, or discontinuation phases she makes herself available to answer questions and guide you through the process with follow-up appointments or via secure messaging, outside of appointment times, and all concerns are discussed.
Unless lifelong medication management is needed, you may choose to pause medications if you are feeling better, and we can reassess later to see if you need to continue taking them. It can be quite scary to start this journey, but just know you are not alone in this process towards a better mental health and overall wellbeing.

Anxiety and depression can be two very debilitating conditions. They may not seem like it, but one or both of these conditions can determine whether or not you have a fulfilling life. One of the greatest gifts I can receive is seeing my patients progress from feeling like they can't go on another day to being happy, smiling, making plans, and even mentoring others to take steps toward treatment.
