Many common treatment issues benefit from a combination of “talk therapy” and Medication Evaluation & Management. Depression and anxiety, for example, are sometimes best treated through coordinated efforts of a qualified therapist and a psychiatric specialist. Dallas Whole Life Counseling works closely with a number of experienced medication providers.
Your therapist will carefully shape your treatment plan to best make use of your customized medication regimen, and will maintain an ongoing dialogue with your medication provider to maximize your treatment progress on all fronts.

Should I meet first with a psychiatrist or a therapist?
If you are potentially interested in pursuing both therapy and medication treatment, you can initially meet with either a medication provider or one of our counseling experts. (If you would like to first meet with a psychiatrist, call (972) 755-0996 and we will provide a referral based upon your circumstances.) During your initial one hour meeting with a psychiatrist or therapist, you can discuss your intention to integrate medication with psychotherapy, and your care provider can help you form the best treatment plan for your financial resources, meeting availability and specific treatment issues. If you are uncertain about where to start, we suggest you first meet with one of our therapy specialists for an initial consultation.
Getting started takes just a few minutes and we can often accommodate same-day / next-day appointments
Making an appointment is quick and easy. After you submit your request, our office staff will send you information on how to fill out new patient paperwork, gather necessary documentation, and confirm your appointment. If it’s currently normal business hours, we’re usually in touch within one to two hours. You can request to be seen ASAP for a same-day or next-day appointment. Appointment availability may be influenced and limited by factors like your insurance plan and if you’d like to see a specific counselor.
