REFRESH DALLAS · THERAPY
Therapy that fits the problem.
Most psychiatric conditions respond better to therapy and medication together than to either one alone. We are a psychiatry practice, so the therapy piece happens with partner providers. The coordination is part of how we work.

THE SERVICE
What it actually is.
We don't provide therapy as a standalone service. What we do is care about whether you have a therapist, who that therapist is, and what kind of therapy makes sense for what you're dealing with. For most patients, having a therapist alongside medication management is what makes the difference.
The clinical reality is that medication addresses the physiology and therapy addresses the patterns. They are different tools. Patients who have both, and whose providers are talking to each other, do better than patients who have one without the other.
WHAT TO EXPECT
We don't offer one kind.
The right therapy depends on what's actually going on. CBT for anxiety, OCD, and the thought patterns that maintain distress. DBT where emotional regulation is the real challenge, the presentations where skill-building does specific work. Psychodynamic therapy where the question isn't just what's happening, but why it keeps happening.
We match the modality to the presentation, not the other way around.
Therapy here runs alongside psychiatric care, not instead of it. When medication and therapy are both part of the plan, they're coordinated. Same practice, same record, no translation required between providers.
WHO THIS IS FOR
People who need both sides of care.
Patients who already see a therapist and want their psychiatrist to be in the loop. Patients who don't yet have a therapist and want one. Patients whose condition specifically benefits from a kind of therapy that has strong evidence, where finding the right therapist matters.
FAQ
Questions.
Doing both well is a different practice model. A psychiatry practice that adds therapy as an add-on often does neither piece as well as a dedicated practice for each. We focus on the psychiatric piece and partner with providers who focus on the therapy piece.
Yes, with your written consent. The amount of communication depends on what's clinically relevant. Routine cases need less. Complex cases need more.
Depends on what you need. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is the most common starting point and applies broadly. ERP is the specific approach for OCD. EMDR, CPT, and PE are the trauma-focused approaches we refer for PTSD. There are others.
Most plans do, but each therapist's network is different from each psychiatrist's network. When we refer, we keep in-network options in mind when we have them.
