From Dr. Mark Ogle —
I have a general outpatient psychiatric practice, treating adults aged 18 and up. My principal focus is on medication treatment of mood and anxiety disorders.
Like most psychiatrists in today’s world, my practice focus is on medication management. Many patients engage in so-called split treatment, where they see a psychiatrist for medication management and see a non-medical therapist, such as a psychologist or social worker, for talking therapy. We can discuss this at your first appointment.
If you are certain that you do not want to take medications, but just want therapy, you likely should see a non-medical therapist rather than me.
