Dr. Heekin’s practice is focused on psychiatric medication management (psychopharmacology), so he does not do in-depth counseling or psychotherapy. Of course at every visit we will check in and see how you have been doing, but this does not take the form of multiple 1-hour sessions that many people associate with psychotherapy. For many clients therapy is an important part of the treatment, and for those who may benefit from it Dr. Heekin can help provide referrals to providers in your area.

Even if you have never done telehealth/telemedicine before, it is really quite simple! All you need is a device such as a smartphone, computer, or tablet that has a camera and can connect to the internet.
