Intolerable side effects that might respond to dose change, switch, or adjunct.
A DSM-5-TR diagnosis that has an evidence-based pharmacologic option the patient wants to consider.
Failed or partial response to a current agent after an adequate trial.
Labs, scales, and follow-up cadence
Clozapine: ANC monitoring — we refer if we cannot meet the REMS cadence.
MAOI diet and washout rules if that class is ever used.
Stimulants: BP/HR, sleep, appetite, PDMP, diversion discussion.

Clinical FAQ
Do you work with my therapist?
With consent, yes. Medication does not replace psychotherapy when both are indicated.
Do you prescribe benzodiazepines long-term?
Rarely, with a documented indication and a taper orientation. They are not a standing plan for GAD.
Can I refuse a medication?
Always. Informed consent includes the option of no medication.
Will you take over my current list?
After a diagnostic review. We do not rubber-stamp unsafe combinations.
Do you prescribe stimulants?
When the evaluation supports ADHD and PDMP/safety checks pass. Not from a questionnaire alone.
What is PDMP?
Florida's prescription drug monitoring program. We check it before controlled substances.
Do you provide LGBTQ+-affirming psychiatric care?
Yes. We provide competent, affirming psychiatric care for all patients. Our hormone therapy services and psychiatric evaluations are delivered with respect for every patient's identity.
Can you coordinate hormone therapy with psychiatric medication?
Absolutely. This is one of our specialties. We understand the interplay between hormone levels and mood, and manage both under one clinical roof for optimal outcomes.
