SERVICE

Therapy Coordination.

Psychiatric care works best when it complements skilled talk therapy. We partner with your existing therapist or help you find one who fits.

WHAT THIS INVOLVES

Psychiatry and therapy do different work.

Psychiatric providers and therapists serve different functions. Psychiatric care often addresses what is happening at the level of biology and prescribing. Therapy addresses patterns, relationships, and the stories we tell ourselves. Both matter, and they are often most effective in concert.

At LumenMind, we do not provide talk therapy ourselves. What we do is partner well with the therapist you already see, or help you find one whose style and specialty fit what you need.

When psychiatric care and therapy share information and align on goals, our experience is that patients move forward faster and with less friction.

WHAT WE COVER

Coordination with your current therapist
Referrals to vetted therapists in Pennsylvania
Matching therapy modality to your goals
Shared treatment planning when appropriate
Communication between providers, with your consent
Help navigating insurance coverage for therapy

WHO THIS IS FOR

Therapy coordination may be helpful if...

You see a therapist now and want a psychiatric provider who will work alongside them.
You are looking for a therapist and want guidance on finding the right fit.
Your therapist has suggested medication and you want to explore that.
You have tried therapy before and want to revisit it with a different modality.
You feel that medication alone is not enough and want a broader approach.

WHAT TO EXPECT

A simple path to the right partnership.

BEFORE

Understanding the goal

Before connecting you with a therapist, we want to understand what you are looking to work on. Different therapies suit different goals, and the wrong fit slows progress.

DURING

The matching conversation

We meet to talk about therapy modalities (CBT, ACT, EMDR, psychodynamic, others), what each does well, and which one fits your situation.

AFTER

The referral

We provide vetted therapist recommendations, including who is currently taking patients, whether they accept your insurance, and what their approach looks like in practice.

FOLLOW-UP

The coordination

Once you are in therapy, with your consent, we coordinate with your therapist on shared goals. Two providers, one plan.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Common questions, answered.

Do you provide therapy yourself?

No. We are psychiatric providers, not therapists. We provide evaluation, medication management, and care coordination. Therapy is a separate scope of practice.

Do I have to use a therapist you recommend?

No. We coordinate with any therapist you choose. The recommendations are there if you want them, not a requirement.

What kinds of therapy do you recommend?

It depends on what you are working on. We are familiar with CBT, ACT, EMDR, psychodynamic, IFS, DBT, and others. We can talk through which approach fits your goals.

Will you share information with my therapist?

Only with your written consent. When you authorize it, we communicate to align on shared goals. You control what is shared.

What if I do not want therapy?

That is fine. Therapy is not required for psychiatric care at LumenMind. We coordinate when there is a therapist to coordinate with.
