Frequently Asked Questions

Integrated psychiatry combines traditional psychiatric care, including medication management and diagnostic evaluations, with advanced treatments such as TMS therapy, Spravato, IV ketamine, psychotherapy, and holistic approaches. All of these services are coordinated by a single care team under one roof, ensuring comprehensive and cohesive treatment.

A psychiatrist is a medical doctor (MD or DO) who specializes in mental health. Psychiatrists can prescribe medications, order diagnostic tests, and manage complex psychiatric conditions. A therapist (psychologist, LMHC, LCSW) provides talk therapy using evidence-based modalities like CBT, DBT, and EMDR. At RECO, we offer both services so you can receive comprehensive care in one place.

In most cases, no. You can self-refer to RECO Integrated Psychiatry. However, some HMO insurance plans may require a referral from your primary care physician. Our admissions team will verify this for you when you contact us.

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate specific areas of the brain involved in mood regulation. It is primarily used for treatment-resistant depression and OCD. Sessions last approximately 20 to 40 minutes, require no sedation, and patients can drive themselves home afterward. A typical course involves daily sessions over 4 to 6 weeks. Learn more about TMS therapy.

Spravato (esketamine) is an FDA-approved nasal spray used for treatment-resistant depression and major depressive disorder with suicidal ideation. It must be administered in a certified healthcare setting under medical supervision. Treatment sessions last about 2 hours, including a monitoring period. Patients who have not responded adequately to at least two oral antidepressants may qualify. Learn more about Spravato.

IV ketamine therapy involves the intravenous administration of ketamine in a controlled clinical setting. It provides rapid relief for severe depression, anxiety, PTSD, and chronic pain, often within hours rather than weeks. Treatments are administered by our medical team in a comfortable, monitored environment. Learn more about IV ketamine therapy.

Pharmacogenomic testing analyzes your DNA to determine how your body metabolizes psychiatric medications. This information helps your psychiatrist select the most effective medication and dosage for your unique genetic profile, reducing the trial-and-error approach to finding the right treatment. Learn more about genetic testing.

Yes. We offer secure, HIPAA-compliant telepsychiatry appointments for patients throughout Florida. Telehealth is available for psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and therapy sessions.

Your treatment team will work with you to establish clear goals and regularly assess progress to determine the appropriate duration.

Not necessarily. Medication is one tool among many. Your psychiatrist will conduct a thorough evaluation and discuss whether medication is recommended for your specific situation. Many patients benefit from therapy alone or from a combination of therapy and other treatments like TMS. We never prescribe medications without careful consideration and patient consent.
