Expert Psychiatric Care for What You're Going Through

If you're experiencing persistent changes in mood, sleep, energy, focus, or behavior that interfere with your daily life or relationships, it may be time to see a psychiatrist. A psychiatric evaluation helps identify what's going on and what treatment options are available. You don't need a referral to schedule an appointment at CARMAhealth.

A psychiatrist is a medical doctor who can diagnose conditions, prescribe medication, and oversee advanced treatments like TMS or ketamine therapy. A therapist provides talk therapy and counseling but cannot prescribe medication. At CARMAhealth, board-certified psychiatrists lead your care, which may include both medication and therapy referrals.

Yes. Many patients come to us with overlapping conditions, such as depression and anxiety or ADHD and insomnia. Our psychiatrists evaluate the full picture and create a treatment plan that addresses all of your symptoms together, not in isolation.

Your first visit is a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation. Your practitioner will review your symptoms, medical history, current medications, and treatment goals. Based on that assessment, they'll recommend a personalized plan that may include medication, TMS, ketamine therapy, or a combination. Most evaluations take 45 to 60 minutes.

CARMAhealth accepts 15+ insurance plans including Aetna, BCBS, Cigna, United Healthcare, and more. Psychiatric evaluation and medication management are typically covered. TMS coverage varies by plan, and Spravato (esketamine) is often covered as an FDA-approved treatment.
