Reaching out for mental health support takes courage. Many people delay seeking care because they worry about being judged, misunderstood, or having their privacy exposed. At Favor Mental Health in Bel Air, MD, we want you to know this: your care is always confidential, and you will always be treated with compassion.
If you’ve been considering getting help for depression, anxiety, insomnia, or substance use but aren’t sure what to expect, this post walks you through our process step by step.

Your First Step: A Confidential Evaluation
When you call to schedule, our team sets up a private appointment where you’ll meet with a certified psychiatric provider. During this evaluation, we’ll:
Listen carefully to your concerns.
Review your symptoms and medical history.
Ask about sleep, mood, stress, or substance use.
Answer any questions you may have about treatment options.
Everything discussed is protected by HIPAA confidentiality laws. Nothing is shared without your written consent.
A Personalized Treatment Plan
No two patients are alike. That’s why we create individualized treatment plans, which may include:
Medication management for depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, insomnia, or substance use.
Talk therapy support where appropriate, though our main focus is medication.
Step-by-step guidance so you understand how your treatment will work.
Our goal is to reduce symptoms quickly, safely, and effectively — without making you feel rushed or pressured.
What Compassionate Care Looks Like
At Favor Mental Health, we believe compassion means:
Listening without judgment. Many patients say this is the first time they’ve felt truly heard.
Respecting your pace. If you’re nervous about medication, we start slowly and explain everything.
Honoring your story. We know your struggles don’t define you — they’re just part of your journey.
One Bel Air patient recently told us, “I was so anxious before my first visit, but the kindness and patience I experienced here put me at ease immediately.”
