Medication Management
NCI understands that medications can be helpful and sometimes necessary to treat underlying biological causes of distress. NCI is now proud to offer medication management services from Shawnte’ Farmer, DNP, MSN, PMHNP-BC.
Dr. Farmer believes medications are a tool, not the solution to our problems and believes strongly in the power of therapy and medication working in tandem to bring freedom from anxiety, depression, and life’s hurts and hang-ups. As a result Dr. Farmer may recommend counseling as part of treatment and continued medication management. Counseling does not have to be provided by NCI and those currently receiving counseling from other providers are welcome.
NCI believes in a holistic and conservative approach to certain medications. NCI does not provide ADD/ADHD medications and takes a conservative approach to benzodiazepines and other narcotics. Blood tests and labs may be required for certain medications.
