Should I start with therapy or medication first?
Both medication and therapy have been proven effective for treating mental health concerns. Some concerns respond better to medications so you will need to talk with a mental health provider to determine if medication is the best option. If you have taken medication in the past, and it has been helpful, you may decide to start medication again.
Many concerns also respond well to therapy only. Many prefer therapy because they like understanding why they’ve developed certain patterns and want to learn lifelong coping skills. Whether you try one or both depends on your unique situation and your comfort.
We encourage making this decision in consultation with a mental health professional.
