Discover psychiatric medication management with Flourish — where holistic meets compassionate care
Let’s chat. When you hear psychiatric medication management whispered around Flourish, it might sound clinical—but here, it’s anything but cold. We gently tease in that phrase as a window into how Flourish brings together medication, mind-body connection, and life coaching—all wrapped in warm, collaborative care.
A gentle start: more than just prescriptions
At Flourish, psychiatric medication management isn't about cold protocols or rushed appointments. It's about deeply listening, working together, and ensuring you’re never just a chart number. The providers here — psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners — partner with your broader life-coaching team to support your mental wellness, not just your symptoms.
Meet your medication guides — experts with heart
Dr. Jennifer Costello, Medical Director and trusted psychiatrist, brings an integrative “whole person” mindset from her osteopathic roots. She values collaboration—especially with families when it comes to children’s care—and believes in exploring all options before deciding on medication. (flourishcounselingmd.com)
Lisa Lorden, a psychiatric nurse practitioner and PhD-trained acute care nurse, sees the deep bond between the physical and mental. She especially emphasizes caring for people facing chronic illness—patients themselves or their caregivers—and combines medication management with freedom to express needs and build partnership.
Dr. Joseph Dougherty, psychiatrist for all ages, especially children and teens, marries methodical diagnosis with holistic support. His skill in medication is paired with psychotherapy and CBT-style tools when needed—and he truly views meds as one piece of a bigger support puzzle.
Here’s how psychiatric medication management gently unfolds at Flourish
Trust begins first
No rush, no “you're next.” Your provider takes time—sometimes in person, sometimes through telehealth—to really understand your story, health history, and hopes.
Skilled, evidence-based prescribing
Whether for anxiety, depression, or another concern, your treatment is rooted in clinical expertise. Medication is offered only as needed, and always in collaboration with you.
Holistic pairings—not medication alone
Flourish builds bridges between prescriptive care and healing experiences like massage, reiki, acupuncture, yoga, therapy, or coaching. It’s always about the full you. (flourishcounselingmd.com)
Telehealth that cares—really
Life doesn’t always allow office visits. Flourish’s telehealth medication sessions are designed to be just as compassionate and effective as in-person ones. (flourishcounselingmd.com)

Your journey with Flourish, in conversation
Think of starting as sitting down for a heartfelt talk. Maybe you’re feeling off-balance or you’ve been in and out of therapy and meds, unsure what’s working. You mention psychiatric medication management out loud, maybe softly—and immediately, the tone softens. You know you're in a place that cares.
You’ll talk, they’ll listen. They’ll explore what might help—and that could mean gentle medication, yes... but also yoga, coaching, or mindfulness as part of your toolkit. They check in, virtually if needed, keep you grounded, keep you growing—not just managing.
