Medication
Management
Medication can play a key role in treating depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, and bipolar disorder. For some, it provides the stability needed to fully engage in therapy. For others, it addresses underlying biological factors. While therapy is central to our approach, medication management helps us tailor care to each individual’s needs.
At Bodhi Counseling, we know mental health care is most effective when it's personalized and comprehensive. That’s why we’re excited to now offer medication management services—through Megan R. Ramirez, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP)—enhancing the support we provide to children, teens, and adults.
Compassionate, Collaborative Medication Support
Megan brings both clinical expertise and a compassionate, collaborative approach. They don’t just prescribe—they partner with you to explore your options, answer your questions, and create a holistic plan that aligns with your goals. We’ll always consider non-medication strategies as well, including mindfulness, nutrition, and lifestyle supports, when appropriate.
Holistic Care with Seamless Continuity
A key benefit of having this service in-house is continuity of care. Our therapists and prescriber work closely together, ensuring your treatment is aligned and responsive without the stress of navigating outside providers or waitlists. Whether you're considering medication for the first time or reviewing an existing regimen, we're here to support you in a thoughtful, pressure-free way.
Compassionate, Collaborative Medication Support

GeneSight® DNA Testing
Finding the right medication for depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, or other conditions can often feel like trial and error. Side effects, lack of effectiveness, and multiple medication changes can be frustrating. GeneSight® reduces this guesswork by analyzing your DNA to see how your body responds to different medications.
¿Por qué evaluar el trastorno por déficit de atención e hiperactividad?
El TDAH (trastorno por déficit de atención e hiperactividad) afecta muchas áreas de la vida, desde las rutinas diarias y el rendimiento académico hasta las relaciones personales y la autoestima. Obtener una evaluación profesional en Bodhi Counseling es un paso crucial para obtener un diagnóstico preciso.
Utilizamos evaluaciones estandarizadas para diferenciar el TDAH de otros trastornos como la ansiedad y la depresión. Esto garantiza que su plan de tratamiento se adapte específicamente a sus necesidades, que pueden incluir una combinación de:
Terapia conductual : Técnicas para gestionar conductas y mejorar la concentración;
Psicoeducación : comprender el TDAH y su impacto en su vida;
Cambios en el estilo de vida : ajustes en los hábitos diarios para mejorar el manejo de los síntomas.
Estas estrategias pueden mejorar su calidad de vida al abordar los síntomas directamente y brindarle herramientas para gestionarlos de manera efectiva.
