The Psychiatry Group provides psychiatric treatment for eligible injured workers experiencing mental health conditions associated with workplace injuries. Treatment may include psychiatric follow-up, medication management, and ongoing assessment based on individual clinical needs. Care is coordinated according to applicable Washington workers’ compensation requirements and authorization procedures.
Treating psychiatric care
Recovery from an occupational injury often involves more than one kind of support. Our treatment services bring psychiatric care together into one plan built around your needs and your return to daily life and work. This includes care for work-related PTSD, anxiety, and depression.
If you are in crisis, call or text 988. In an emergency, call 911. Our office line is for appointments, not crisis support.
Which options are right for you depends on your evaluation and your provider’s recommendations.
Some injured workers develop symptoms of post-traumatic stress after a serious workplace injury or event, such as intrusive memories, avoidance, or being constantly on edge. Treatment is tailored to the person and may combine medication management with counseling.
We collaborate with medical providers, rehabilitation specialists, and other professionals involved in your recovery, so everyone works from the same plan.
Injured workers with L&I, self-insured, or third-party claims, and some self-pay patients.
In most cases, authorization is required before treatment begins. Private-pay patients do not need authorization.
Treatment is provided by telepsychiatry, so you can receive care from home. Patients must be located in Washington at the time of the visit. Some services may be available in other states, so contact our office to confirm.
Most patients begin with an initial psychiatric evaluation.
