Psychiatric Medication Management & Other Services
Do you offer psychiatric medication management in Londonderry, NH?
Yes! This is our bread and butter. We offer psychiatric medication management services to ensure your treatment plan is effective and tailored to your needs. We provide medication management at our office in Londonderry, NH, and via telehealth for established patients. Our team will work closely with you to monitor and adjust your medication as needed.
What is integrative psychiatry?
Integrative psychiatry means we treat the whole person, not just a diagnosis. Rather than relying on medication alone, we combine psychiatric medication with supplements, lifestyle support, and referrals to therapy when it helps — building a plan around what each patient actually needs. At Resonance Mental Health, this whole-person approach guides our medication management, and it’s why we schedule a full 90-minute new-patient intake. Real care takes time.
Do you offer therapy or psychiatric counseling services?
Resonance Mental Health is a psychiatric medication management practice — we do not offer talk therapy or psychiatric counseling in-house. Our practice owner, Brianna Boulanger, PMHNP-BC, is a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner focused on medication management, and she intentionally hires nurse practitioners in the same discipline so our team can give patients consistent, expert support.
We strongly encourage all of our patients to pair their psychiatric care with therapy, and we’re happy to refer you to trusted local partners such as True North Healing Center.
Should I see a therapist or a psychiatric medication provider?
It’s not uncommon to be unsure about whether therapy, medication, or a combination is right for you. Our team can help assess your needs and recommend the best approach. Learn more about therapy vs. medication.
What is Deep TMS & how does it work?
TMS is short for Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, and it is a treatment where magnetic waves are sent through your brain to target specific areas. This can alleviate conditions that have not responded well to traditional medication management. We provide Deep TMS at our office in Londonderry, NH.
What type of Deep TMS machine do you use & is it available in Londonderry, New Hampshire?
We have a BrainsWay Deep TMS machine and are the only ones in the state to carry it. It is a designated OCD helmet for more efficient and holistic care. Turnaround times are shorter, treatment is more effective, and deeper parts of the brain can be reached.
How much does Deep TMS cost in New Hampshire?
For most patients with insurance, Deep TMS in New Hampshire costs only your plan’s copay or coinsurance. Most major insurers cover Deep TMS for treatment-resistant depression once medical necessity criteria are met. At Resonance Mental Health in Londonderry, NH, we verify your benefits before treatment begins, so there are no surprises, and cash-pay options are available if you’re uninsured. Visit Insurance & Payments or contact our team – we will walk you through your specific coverage.
Do you offer Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) testing in adults and children?
Yes, we fully diagnose using at-home testing through QBTech. QBTech testing is not designed to take the place of a full neuropsychiatric evaluation by a psychologist, but it allows us to have you demonstrate your deficits in a way that provides enough objective data to pursue medications for you.
Do you provide neuropsychological or neuropsychiatric testing?
We do not provide full neuropsychological or neuropsychiatric testing — that’s a comprehensive evaluation performed by a psychologist. What we do offer is at-home QBTech ADHD testing, which gives us objective data to support an ADHD diagnosis and guide medication treatment. If a full neuropsychiatric evaluation is needed, we can point you toward the right resources.
Do you offer telehealth psychiatry appointments?
Yes, we do! We ask that your first visit be in person so we can complete a thorough psychiatric evaluation and build an accurate care plan. After that initial appointment, established patients can schedule telehealth visits from anywhere in New Hampshire — a convenient option for ongoing medication management and follow-up care.
See our psychiatric services for the full list of what we offer, or refer to our blog post on how telehealth is improving access to personalized psychiatric care.
Do you offer in-person psychiatric appointments in Londonderry, NH?
The timeline for seeing results varies from individual to individual. Most psychiatric medications take two to six weeks to show their full effect, though some changes can appear sooner. Some may notice changes quickly, while others may take longer. If you’re receiving Deep TMS, most patients complete a course over about 4 to 6 weeks and may begin noticing improvement partway through. Consistency, openness, and tracking your symptoms are key factors in helping us help you. Regular 25-minute follow-up visits give your provider time to monitor your response and adjust your treatment plan thoughtfully.

How does Resonance Mental Health treat anxiety and depression?
Anxiety and depression are two of the most common conditions we treat. Our experienced team builds a personalized plan that may include psychiatric medication management, supplement and lifestyle support, and referrals to therapy when it adds value — our whole-person, integrative approach. We start by understanding your symptoms and goals, then monitor your response closely at follow-up visits and adjust treatment as needed to help you feel better and improve your quality of life. For treatment-resistant depression, Deep TMS may also be an option.

Yes, we offer specialized support for individuals with OCD, using proven therapeutic techniques to help manage and reduce symptoms. We also offer Brainsway Deep TMS with a specialized OCD coil at our Londonderry office for OCD that hasn’t responded to medication alone.

What’s the difference between a psychiatrist and a psychiatric nurse practitioner (PMHNP)?
Both psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, including controlled substances. The main difference is training path: psychiatrists are physicians (MD or DO), while PMHNPs are advanced-practice nurses with specialized psychiatric training. In New Hampshire, PMHNPs have full prescriptive authority and practice independently. All three providers at Resonance Mental Health are board-certified PMHNPs.
