Services
Telepsychiatry
Our telepsychiatry service connects patients with board-certified psychiatrists through secure video technology. This solution addresses provider shortages in rural and underserved areas by delivering medication evaluations, crisis interventions, and ongoing psychiatric care. Patients receive timely appointments without travel requirements, while facilities maintain continuity of care through consistent provider relationships.
Psychotherapy
We offer individual and group psychotherapy sessions for mental health treatment across all age groups. Our licensed therapists specialize in evidence-based approaches for conditions like trauma, mood disorders, and behavioral challenges. Services include in-person visits at skilled nursing facilities and virtual sessions for accessible, flexible care options.
Long-term Care
Our team provides psychiatric evaluations and therapy services in over 70 nursing homes and senior care facilities. Services include medication management, behavioral disorder treatment, and cognitive disorder care tailored to elderly populations. We collaborate with facility staff to create personalized care plans that improve residents' quality of life.
Emergency Consults
We offer urgent psychiatric consultations for facilities requiring immediate mental health interventions. Our providers respond to crisis situations outside regular hours, addressing acute behavioral issues and stabilizing patients in emergency scenarios. This service reduces hospital transfers and ensures timely care for critical cases.

This includes initial assessments, dosage adjustments, and electronic prescription services for controlled substances.
