Psychiatric Medication Management with Psychotherapy Option
Our services include comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and personalized medication management across all age groups to address a variety of mental health conditions. If patients desire, intentional psychotherapy may be an added component to their total care.
Adolescent patients must have a parent/caregiver as an active member in their psychiatric care and decision-making regardless of age.

Weight Management With Medication Support Options
We offer compassionate, evidence-based support for weight management, integrating medication options (such as GLP-1s) with a whole-person approach. Care is tailored to your unique needs, including mental health and lifestyle goals focused on sustainable change and feeling more at home in your body.

Intranasal Spravato® (esketamine)
Our in-person services encompass intranasal Spravato® (esketamine), a ketamine-derived drug treatment. Use of Spravato® (esketamine) will be for FDA-approved conditions only, including Treatment-Resistant Depression and Depressive Symptoms in MDD with Acute Suicidal Ideation or Behavior.
