We’ve heard a lot of people say that getting mental health prescriptions can be a hassle. “My prescriber barely has even 15 minutes for me.” “I can’t even get an available appointment for another two months!.” “They aren’t really listening to me.” Ever feel like this with your prescriber? We have a solution! Our prescribing services focus on an accessible, relationship-oriented approach. Our goal is to keep our wait times for new patients under 2 weeks. All of our prescribers do full 1-hour intakes and 30-minute follow-ups. They are also guided by the SAME EMPHASIS ON the provider-patient relationship as Alliance therapists. We care about YOU, not just your symptoms. And it doesn’t matter if you don’t work with an Alliance therapist! We make sure we regularly collaborate with all of our patients’ therapists–whether that therapist works at Alliance or not! If you are unhappy with your current mental health prescription care, or even just want a second opinion, consider Alliance Rx for a new, more personalized experience.

Why we need a mental health moonshot 👨⚕️ ⚕ 🧠 This article highlights a critical issue facing the healthcare industry today: the urgent need to address the mental health crisis. The author, Robert C. Garrett for Hackensack Meridian Health, outlines a compelling argument for a concerted, large-scale effort to revolutionize mental health care, akin to the ambitious Cancer Moonshots of the past. It's a wake-up call for society to prioritize mental health with the same vigor as other medical challenges. It's a reminder that mental health is an integral part of overall well-being and requires a comprehensive strategy that includes improved access to care, innovative service delivery, strong partnerships, and a renewed focus on medication development. The "mental health moonshot" proposed by the article is not just a necessity but a moral imperative. It's time for all stakeholders in healthcare and society at large to come together and take bold steps towards a future where mental health care is accessible, effective, and devoid of stigma.
