How We Approach Your Care

Every patient arrives with a different story, different needs, and different goals. At BLT Tele Psychiatry, we don’t force a one-size-fits-all model. Instead, we work together to find the approach that feels right for you — whether that’s medication management, therapy integration, skills-building, lifestyle changes, or a blend of all of the above.

Medication Management, When Needed

Medication can be a powerful tool, but it’s never the entire story. We use medications thoughtfully and collaboratively — choosing options that align with your goals, your comfort level, and your day-to-day reality.

Support for Therapy and CBT

If you’re already in therapy, we can coordinate care with your therapist to make sure everything works together. If you’re not, we can help guide you toward approaches like CBT, exposure-based therapy, or trauma-focused therapy that complement medication and improve long-term outcomes.

Lifestyle Prescribing

One of our core values is recognizing that your lifestyle is part of your treatment.
When appropriate and when you’re open to it, we explore:

• Sleep optimization for mood and focus

• Nutrition habits that stabilize energy and reduce anxiety

• Exercise routines tailored to your ability and schedule

• Stress reduction techniques that actually work for real life

• Time-management and routine-building skills

• Reducing substances that make symptoms worse

• Healthy boundaries and communication patterns

Lifestyle prescribing isn’t about perfection or pressure — it’s about small, realistic changes that support your mental health from the ground up.

You Guide the Process

Whether you want a medication-first plan, a therapy-first plan, a lifestyle-first plan, or a mix of all three, the pace is always yours. Our role is to offer guidance, expertise, and structure — not to tell you who you “should” be.

All care is delivered virtually, with respect for your privacy, your autonomy, and your individual goals.
