Integrated Treatment
Services at Gateway Psychiatric
At Gateway Psychiatric, we’re here to support you with a range of personalized psychiatric services. Our clinic is focused on providing “Integrated Care”, meaning we feel that we are best able to help our patients when all of their needs are provided by clinicians who work closely together.
In practice, this means that patients who are seeing Dr. Forster for psychiatric treatment may also see one of the Gateway therapists for psychotherapy when psychotherapy care is indicated.
