As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) I do not prescribe medications. However, I work closely with Psychiatrists and other medical providers who do write prescriptions. These prescribing providers often rely on me to monitor how your medication(s) are working for you, and update them as needed.
Since I am not an MD or PhD, you can call me Greg or Mr. Snider.
