Psychiatric Medication Management
Medication Management That Sees the Whole Person.
Medication is not the whole story of mental health care, but for some people, it can be an important part of their treatment.
At Helen's Project, our psychiatric nurse practitioners provide individualized evaluations, medication management, and ongoing follow-up, supported by physician supervision and a broader team focused on whole-person care.
Medication is never required to receive therapy, wellness coaching, or wellness coordination at Helen's Project.
A Thoughtful, Ongoing Partnership—Not a Quick Prescription.
Psychiatric medication management is specialized mental health treatment focused on understanding whether medication may help with symptoms such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, or mood-related concerns—and, if you and your provider decide it makes sense, monitoring how it's working over time.
It works best as one part of a larger plan. Many clients pair medication management with therapy, healthy routines, and practical support, so care addresses the whole of their life—not just a symptom checklist.

From First Conversation to Ongoing Care.
Every person's path looks a little different. Here's the general shape of care with our psychiatric nurse practitioners.
Schedule
Choose a psychiatric nurse practitioner and request an appointment online, or contact our team and we'll help you find the right fit and verify your coverage.
Initial evaluation
A longer first visit to understand your concerns, symptoms, health and medication history, and what you'd like to be different.
Decide together
Your provider explains options, potential benefits, side effects, and alternatives. Any decision is collaborative—including the decision not to start medication.
Follow-up visits
Shorter, regular check-ins to review how you're feeling, track progress and side effects, and adjust the plan as needs change.
The People Behind Your Care
Our licensed psychiatric nurse practitioners provide evaluations and medication management through secure telehealth.
Clinical Oversight
These physicians provide clinical supervision for our psychiatric nurse practitioners. They are not listed as bookable medication management providers.
Supervisory and collaborative arrangements follow the requirements of each state where our nurse practitioners practice.
Different Professionals. Connected Support.
Medication management can be one piece of your plan. These services can stand on their own or work alongside it.
Your information stays yours. When it helps your care, our providers may collaborate with one another—only when appropriate, with your consent where required, and within applicable professional and legal requirements. Providers do not automatically share your clinical information.
Good Questions to Ask
Do I have to take medication to get care at Helen's Project?
No. Therapy, wellness coaching, and wellness coordination are all available without medication management. And a medication evaluation doesn't mean you'll be prescribed anything—it's a conversation about your options.
Will I get a prescription at my first appointment?
Not necessarily. Your nurse practitioner will recommend what they believe is clinically appropriate after understanding your full picture. We never promise a prescription, a specific medication, or a particular result.
Who provides medication management?
Our psychiatric nurse practitioners, Janecia Jackson, PMHNP-BC, and Joel Smith, PMHNP, provide evaluations and ongoing medication management, with physician supervision from Dr. Kenneth Rice and Dr. George Ivanovskis.
Can I keep seeing my therapist?
Yes. Medication management is designed to complement therapy, whether your therapist is at Helen's Project or elsewhere. With your permission, providers can coordinate when it would help your care.
Where is medication management available?
Appointments are by secure telehealth, in the states where each nurse practitioner is licensed (listed on each provider's profile). Contact us and we'll confirm availability for your state.
Do you take insurance?
We accept many insurance plans and offer affordability options. Our team will verify your coverage before your first visit. See affordability options.
