Kadison says that UHS sometimes has the prescriber also perform therapy if there are “clinical reasons” to warrant that.
In interviews with 24 students who had visited UHS for mental health problems, only one student received both medication and therapy from the same clinician—a nurse practitioner.
But some students say few UHS prescribing psychiatrists and nurse practitioners are listening—they’re just doling out medication.
After a year of agonizing over concentrations and work, one female 2003 graduate saw a UHS clinician to deal with her anxiety disorder.
Kadison says UHS prescribes medication to around a third of the students it sees. Students should not go longer than two months on medication without seeing a clinician, he says.
