It is now well established in the scientific and research communities that many psychiatric disorders have strong medical and genetic influences. Education of the patient as well as the general public (the latter through public speaking and resources found on our website) is an integral aspect of In Step Associates' mission to provide highly effective and well respected mental health services.

Mental health disorders can impact our day-to-day behavior and function and intrude upon the decision-making process. When gone untreated, they can have detrimental effects which might include relationship/family conflicts, poor job/school performance, substance abuse or legal issues. Behavioral disorders require treatment based on severity, impact on functional level and level of discomfort to you and the people in your life.

In Step Behavioral Health's Approach to Managing Mental Health

Many regions of the brain serve highly specialized functions, yet all must work together to help us make decisions, organize our lives, and manage our mood. Our brains are influenced by not only by our genes, but also by our life experiences and the world around us. For these reasons, medical treatment of mental illness requires a thorough assessment that includes obtaining personal, medical and family history, identifying psychiatric and medical symptoms and establishing social and developmental history.

After reviewing our findings with the patient, we will then work together to develop a plan of action that establishes well-defined and attainable treatment goals. While the treatment plan may include medication and/or therapy involving multiple providers, coordination of services will be directly managed by In Step Behavioral Health to assure excellent continuity of care.
