Deanette James specializes in providing mental health medication management to patients in need. She does not provide therapy-only sessions. Do you feel like no one understands you, as if every day is a struggle, like you're always there for everyone, but nobody's really there for you? Do you feel misunderstood, misbelieved, misjudged, at your wits end, and don't know what to do or who to turn to? Are you fighting to find the energy to keep going? If you want someone who will listen to and empathize with you, who will help guide you towards meeting your emotional and mental health goals then you have come to the right place. PLEASE SCHEDULE YOUR APPOINTMENT 2-3 DAYS IN ADVANCE TO FACILITATE COMPLETION OF THE INTAKE PACKAGE AND PREVENT RESCHEDULING. THANK YOU!
During our first session we will do our introductions and then discuss what has been happening with your mental health and when it started. Using this information, we will design a plan tailored specifically to meet your needs, based on your goals.
Anxiety and depression are two extremely 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. I believe patients should play active roles in their treatment and progress and not just do what I say, but make suggestions and let me know what works best. As some who has had traumatic experiences, starting with the death of her dad when she was 10 months old and the passing of her mom recently due to stage 4 cancer, she has high interest in providing care to patients who have experienced trauma as well as associated anxiety and depression. Additionally, she lives with chronic pain and autoimmune disorders, so she likes to focus on chronic illnesses and providing care to patients who are experiencing and navigating health stressors which also leads to anxiety, depression, and trauma among other disorders. She does utilize online groups to provide support to people experiencing physical and mental health disorders when she is limited by physical symptoms.
I love working with women who are striving in their careers, or life in general , but are dealing with mental health illnesses which weigh them down and causes a decrease in daily functions whether socially, at home, or at work.
Supportive
I am supportive of my patients and use an empathetic approach to provide the best possible care.
