— HOW WE TREAT —
Psychiatry.
Thoughtful psychopharmacology: where the right treatment is matched to your biology, not guesswork.
— THE PHILOSOPHY
Far beyond
writing a prescription.
At MIP, psychiatric care goes far beyond writing a prescription. We practice thoughtful, individualized psychopharmacology: the science of how medications interact with your brain chemistry, combined with a deep understanding of how nutrition, genetics, and natural compounds influence mental health.
Our goal is always the same: to find what actually works for you, with full transparency about why.
— OUR APPROACH —
Layers of psychiatric care.
because mental health is rarely solved by one tool alone
No. 01 — Foundation
Medication Management
We take a careful, collaborative approach to psychiatric medication — evaluating your full history, explaining your options in plain language, and monitoring your response over time. You'll always understand what you're taking and why.
No. 03 — Personalization
Pharmacogenetic (GeneSight) Testing
Genes influence how your body metabolizes and responds to medication. Through pharmacogenetic testing, we can better understand how your individual genetic makeup affects medication performance — helping us personalize your treatment and reduce the trial-and-error of finding the right fit.
No. 02 — The Science
Psychopharmacology
Our prescribing is grounded in the science of how medications act on the brain and body. We consider how each medication works, how it interacts with your unique physiology, and how to optimize the balance between benefit and side effects.
No. 04 — Integration
Supplementation vs. Medication
Medication isn't the only tool. In the right circumstances, targeted vitamins, amino acids, and micronutrients can support healthy neurotransmitter function. We help you understand when supplementation may complement — or, in some cases, reduce the need for — medication, always as part of a coordinated plan.
No. 05 — Integrative Options
Naturopathic & Nootropic Support
For patients interested in integrative options, we thoughtfully incorporate evidence-informed natural compounds — including herbal extracts and functional mushrooms such as lion's mane — that may support cognition, mood, and resilience. These are always considered within the context of your full psychiatric care, never as a replacement for it.
— Modalities Within Psychiatric Care —
A toolkit of options.
Pharmacotherapy
SSRIs & SNRIs
First-line antidepressants and anti-anxiety medications — chosen carefully based on history and tolerability.
Diagnostic
Pharmacogenetic Testing
GeneSight testing to understand how your genetics influence medication metabolism and response.
Pharmacotherapy
Mood Stabilizers
For bipolar spectrum, cycling, and emotional dysregulation. Closely monitored for both efficacy and labs.
Nutraceuticals
Targeted Supplementation
Vitamins, amino acids, and micronutrients to support neurotransmitter synthesis and brain health.
Pharmacotherapy
Stimulants & Non-Stimulants
For adult ADHD — including thoughtful non-stimulant options where appropriate or preferred.
Integrative
Naturopathic Compounds
Evidence-informed herbal extracts and functional mushrooms — such as lion's mane — alongside conventional care.
— WHY IT’S DIFFERENT —
Most psychiatry stops at the prescription pad.
Ours doesn't.
We integrate genetics, nutrition, and natural compounds alongside conventional medication — so your treatment reflects the full picture of who you are.
