Medications alone are rarely enough to address one's difficulties.  The combination of psychotropic medications and therapy is much more effective than either alone.  Depending on the type of therapy that is helpful for you and the limits of scheduling, some patients engage in this combined treatment at Central Berkshire Psychiatric.  Most see a therapist at another clinic. If you are established with a provider, we recommend that you continue seeing that person. If you are not currently seeing a therapist, we can help with the referral process.

Although most patients continue regular appointments here, many can be seen once or twice for a consultation and then may choose to return to their primary care provider for continuing medications. Other patients are seeking a one-time consultation or a second opinion of an evaluation they have received elsewhere.  We are able to provide these services and can help you find the right treatment for you if you need assistance with referrals.

We do not provide disability or workman's compensation assessments, nor see people who are solely looking for an evaluation/expert opinion for divorce or custody hearings.
