A psychiatrist is a medical doctor (M.D. or D.O.) who, after completing four years of college and four years of medical school, has completed four additional years of specialty training through a residency program in psychiatry. During residency, Psychiatrists are trained in both inpatient and outpatient psychiatry, including therapy. They are also typically exposed to a wide variety of hospitals and treatment settings to ensure they are competent and prepared to assess and treat a wide variety of patient populations. During their residency, Psychiatrists also spend time training in sub-specialties of psychiatry such as child & adolescent, addiction, eating disorders, forensic, consult-liaison, Med-Psych (medically complex patients with psychiatric conditions), geriatric psychiatry and dementia care & emergency psychiatry. As a part of training, psychiatric residents also must complete several months of training in neurology, internal medicine and emergency medicine to build a sound foundation of understanding in these specialties which often overlap with psychiatry or psychiatric presentations.

As physicians, psychiatrists are licensed to prescribe medications, and are extensively training in psychopharmacology. During their outpatient training, psychiatrists also receive a significant amount of training in psychotherapy (“talk-therapy”, CBT, ACT, DBT, grief-work, psychodynamic, etc). Throughout residency, psychiatric residents are trained and supervised by board-certified psychiatrists who ensure that residents are competent in all areas of training.

At the end of their 4 year residency program, a psychiatrist can become board certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology and continues medical education throughout his or her career to maintain that certification.

In brief, a psychiatrist is a physician who specializes in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mental illnesses, including substance abuse/addiction and eating disorders. Psychiatrists are trained to assess the mental, emotional & physical aspects of psychological disturbance, which allows them to make an accurate diagnosis and comprehensive treatment plan. A psychiatrist has the authority to prescribe medications to patients, but a psychologist or therapist cannot.

Part of our Modern approach to mental healthcare, we believe in modern convenience. That means we leave it up to you. We see patient’s in person or through online appointments – whichever is best for you.

Once your initial evaluation appointment is booked (either online or by calling our office), you will receive our New Patient Paperwork via email. This paperwork can be easily filled out from your phone, laptop or tablet, just by clicking the link provided in the email. This paperwork collects information about your insurance plan as well as your medical and psychiatric history. Your Provider will review this paperwork prior to your appointment so that during your initial visit, you can spend less time talking about logistics and more talking about the things that matter to you. Once your New Patient paperwork is submitted online, you’re all set for your appointment!

In recent times there has been a decrease in stigma of mental health. Which has been a great thing as more people than ever are prioritizing their mental health and improving their life. With the increase in people seeking help for mental health, there also is more options than ever for where to go to receive help.

Unfortunately, quantity does not mean quality, and this is something at Meah that we take very seriously. You are busy, so it is important that you are prioritized. In order to give you the best help we made sure to emphasize:

1. Care over seen by psychiatrists, the leading experts in mental health treatment.

2. Multiple proven and cutting edge treatment options all available at our location.

3. Modern convenience with in-person and virtual options for appointments.

4. Easy scheduling and direct access to your Meah team.

Getting mental health help shouldn’t be stressful. We’ve made it easy to help get you to where you want to be, faster.

At Meah we have gone to great lengths to ensure confidentiality. We have made sure to incorporate:

• A private parking lot
• Private rooms with state of the art sound mitigation.
• The option for a private entrance with access directly to your appointment room with no interactions necessary.
• Our online software is encrypted and HIPPA compliant for online appointments and paperwork processing.

The stigma against mental health conditions is improving. However, we understand that for a variety of reasons you still might want the option for enhanced privacy and confidentiality. We want to ensure that what is said stays between you and your provider. For more information on the limits of confidentiality or to set up more enhanced privacy options, please call and talk to our staff about setting this up.

We wanted our name to be a complete picture of the care we provide. Meah – pronounced Me-ah, is a Latin derivative of the word for “mine”. As in mine, or my life. We want to empower our patients to take ownership of their journey to mental wellness and take back the control of their life as they work to overcome their mental health symptoms.

Modern Psychiatry is just that – Modern. The challenges we face in the world today are drastically different than generations before us. Illnesses like anxiety and depression are at an all-time high, and rates continue to climb each year. These numbers show us that we must modernize our approach to the evaluation and treatment of mental health symptoms. We believe in incorporating time-proven treatments with cutting edge new technology and treatments to help you overcome the issues you face. Modern times call for a modern approach.

Yes! For those seeking faster resolution to their symptoms, we do offer accelerated TMS. This is a specific protocol that has multiple TMS sessions a day, for 5 straight days. The protocol called, SAINTS, has been proven to be incredibly effective and safe.

This accelerated protocol has been proven to have remission of depression symptoms at the end of the 5 day treatment, in 80 to 90% of people who completed the 5 day course.

This does require 5 full days of treatment, with each day being 9 hours long. At Meah, we make this as enjoyable process as possible. We offer you:

1. A private TMS treatment room.
2. When you are in-between treatments, you will have a private room to relax in. This private room will have access to Wifi if you want to work, and a comfortable Lazy-boy chair with a large TV. We provide access to Netflix and streaming services to watch shows or movies!
3. Free meals 3 times a day from local restaurants delivered to your private room. Snacks and beverages will be available to you throughout the full day.

Yes we do. For the right person, ketamine has been proven in many controlled studies to be very effective for treatment of certain mental health symptoms. At Meah we have developed and refined our own protocol for utilizing ketamine as a treatment option. Our protocol offers the same proven effects of ketamine, but with less risks than other ketamine treatments.

We developed a protocol that minimizes risks, such as infection or infiltration, and reduces the pain and discomfort of a ketamine infusion. Our process makes receiving this treatment very easy and more comfortable for you, while still getting great results. Your Doctor can talk extensively about this and many other treatment options that we offer at Meah.
