Medication Management
In Chandler, AZ
True Self Mental Wellness provides personalized medication management in Chandler, AZ, helping adults and adolescents find the right balance for lasting mental wellness. As a husband-and-wife owned practice, we take the time to truly listen — building treatment plans around your life, your goals, and your unique needs.
What is Medication Management?
Medication management is an ongoing, collaborative process between you and your psychiatric provider to ensure that any medications prescribed for mental health conditions are working safely and effectively. It goes far beyond simply writing a prescription it includes regular evaluations to monitor progress, manage potential side effects, and make informed adjustments so your treatment remains optimized over time.
Medication is one tool in a broader care plan. At True Self Mental Wellness, medication management visits also include supportive psychotherapy, meaning your appointments address not just dosages but also how you’re feeling, coping, and progressing toward the life you want.
What to Expect During Your Medication Management Journey?
Your First Visit
New patients begin with a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation. During this appointment, Thomas Martin, PA, will review your mental health history, current symptoms, any medications you’ve tried, and your personal goals. Together, you’ll discuss whether medication is appropriate and, if so, which options align best with your needs. This visit is unhurried — you won’t feel like a number.
Tailored Treatment Plan
Based on your evaluation, your provider will collaborate with you to develop a customized medication plan. This may involve starting a new medication, adjusting an existing one, or integrating medication with other therapeutic approaches such as supportive psychotherapy. Your input and preferences are prioritized throughout this process.
Follow-Up Appointments
Follow-up visits are typically scheduled every few weeks initially, then spaced further apart as your treatment stabilizes. Each appointment includes a check-in on symptom progress, side effects, and any life changes. Dosages and medications are adjusted as needed based on your feedback and clinical assessment.
Convenient Access — In Person or Virtual
Appointments are available in person at our Chandler office or via telepsychiatry for patients throughout Arizona. Digital intake paperwork, electronic prescribing, and streamlined communication systems make the entire process simple — from scheduling to refills to follow-up.

Benefits of Personalized Medication Management
Symptom relief that lasts — Properly managed medication can significantly reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and other mood disorders, helping you regain stability and function in daily life.
Fewer side effects — Consistent monitoring means unwanted side effects are caught early and addressed, whether through dosage changes, medication switches, or complementary strategies.
Reduced trial and error — True Self Mental Wellness also offers genetic testing consultations, which can provide insight into how your body metabolizes certain medications — helping narrow down effective options faster.
Enhanced safety — Regular check-ins ensure your medications are working effectively and safely, particularly if you are on multiple medications or have co-existing health conditions. This professional oversight provides peace of mind.
Stronger provider relationship — Continuity of care with the same provider builds trust and leads to better clinical decisions rooted in a deep understanding of your history.
Greater confidence in your care — When you understand why a medication was chosen and how it’s being monitored, you feel more empowered and engaged in your own mental health journey.
