What we do

Psychiatric services in Pueblo

Assessment, medication management and steady follow-up care for adults. What that looks like in practice is set out below, so you know what you are agreeing to before you call.

Services, and areas of support

These are the services this practice provides: the things that actually happen at an appointment. The concerns those services are used for, from anxiety and ADHD to PTSD and trauma, are listed separately on areas of support. Keeping the two apart makes it easier to work out whether this is the right place for you.

What you can come here for

Psychiatric assessment

01

A thorough first appointment. The point is to understand the whole picture before anything is named or prescribed, including the parts that might not feel relevant to you yet.

  • What has been happening, for how long, and what changed
  • Sleep, physical health and any medication you already take
  • Work, money, family and the environment around you
  • What you want to be different, in your own words

Medication management

02

Treatment may include medication management to address conditions such as anxiety, depression, and ADHD. Where medication is on the table, you should understand it before you take it.

  • What it is for, and what it is not for
  • Likely effects, and the ones people stop treatment over
  • Interactions with anything else you take
  • What happens if you would rather not, and what else there is

Follow-up and review

03

Treatment is reviewed as you go rather than set once and left. What works in month one is often not what works in month six, and that is normal rather than a sign of failure.

  • Is it working, and how would we know
  • Side effects worth changing course over
  • Dose changes, swaps, or stopping when that is right
  • What has changed in your life since we last spoke

Care for veterans and military families

04

Geofrey K Kosgei is a veteran. Service culture, deployment, transition and the strain it puts on the people at home do not need explaining from scratch before the appointment can start.

  • PTSD, trauma, anger, sleep and substance use
  • Adjusting to civilian life, work and routine
  • Partners, parents and adult children are welcome too
  • Veterans in crisis can call or text 988 and press 1

Collaborative care with your primary care provider

05

Mental health and physical health are not separate systems. Where it helps, and with your agreement, care here is coordinated with the PCP who already knows your history, so nobody is prescribing around anybody else.

  • Medication reviewed against what you already take
  • Physical health that may be driving symptoms is not ignored
  • Shared updates, only with your agreement
  • No PCP at the moment? That is fine, and worth discussing

Before you book

Whether a referral is needed usually depends on your insurance plan rather than on this practice. Call (720) 897-6735 and ask before you do anything else, so you are not chasing paperwork you did not need.

Anything you take regularly, including over the counter medicines and supplements, is genuinely useful, and a photo of the boxes is fine. Beyond that, bring whatever you have. People arrive with a list, or with nothing, and both work.

The services set out on this page are psychiatric assessment, medication management and follow-up care. If talking therapy would help alongside that, it is worth raising at your appointment so you can be pointed in the right direction.

Fees and the insurance plans accepted are confirmed directly with the practice, because they change. Call (720) 897-6735 or email info@hawthornepsychiatry.com and you will be told before you book. If you are paying for yourself you also have the right to a Good Faith Estimate of expected charges.

No. This practice does not provide emergency or crisis care, and messages are not monitored around the clock. If you are in danger or thinking about ending your life, call or text 988, or call 911. Veterans can press 1 after dialing 988.
