Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Psychiatric care with Dr. Renata Angelini:

What is a Psychiatrist, and how are they different from a Psychologist?

A psychiatrist is a medical doctor (MD or DO) who specializes in mental health. They can prescribe and manage medication, as well as provide therapy. Psychologists, on the other hand, are PhD or PsyD-level experts in psychotherapy and testing, but are not able to prescribe medication.

What can I expect during my first psychiatric evaluation with Dr. Renata Angelini?

Your first visit with Dr. Angelini will involve a comprehensive medical and psychiatric assessment. We will discuss your medical history, symptoms, and current life circumstances to create an accurate diagnosis. This is the first step in developing a personalized treatment plan, which may include medication, therapy, or a combination of both.

Do I have to take medication if I see a psychiatrist?

Dr. Angelini will discuss all treatment options, including psychotherapy and lifestyle changes, and medication is a collaborative decision, recommended when it is the most effective tool for improving your quality of life.

How does Dr. Renata Angelini manage medication side effects?

Dr. Angelini is skilled at managing medication side effects. Her approach is proactive and careful, focusing on finding the medication that provides the most benefit with the fewest side effects. She will start with low doses, closely monitor your response, and adjust dosages or medications as needed to find the best fit for you.

How can medication help prevent a relapse of my depression or bipolar disorder?

Psychiatric medications, like antidepressants or mood stabilizers, help to correct chemical imbalances in the brain, creating a stable foundation for therapy and coping skills. Consistent treatment is crucial in preventing future episodes of depression or bipolar disorder.

What is involved in geriatric psychiatry?

Geriatric psychiatry is a specialized field focused on the mental health of older adults. It involves diagnosing and managing conditions like late-life depression, anxiety, and behavioral symptoms of dementia. Our expertise includes safe medication management for seniors, considering their often complex medication regimens.

How are panic attacks treated with medication?

Dr. Angelini's practice uses a two-pronged approach. Daily preventive medications, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), are used to reduce the frequency and intensity of panic attacks. Fast-acting anti-anxiety medications may be prescribed for acute episodes as needed.

How do you diagnose ADHD in adults?

Dr. Angelini's comprehensive evaluation for adult ADHD goes beyond a simple checklist. It includes a detailed interview about lifelong symptoms, a review of school and work history, and standardized rating scales. This thorough process ensures an accurate diagnosis, which is crucial for developing an effective treatment plan and preventing potential life impairments.
