Mental health conditions show up differently in different people. Some experience loss of appetite combined with persistent sadness; others experience extreme highs and lows along with periods of binge eating. Living with a mental health condition can be isolating, which can make improvement harder. Many of the people closest to us lack the training to help, and even with the best intentions, they sometimes make things worse. It's important to talk with a psychiatrist who can help you make sense of your feelings and teach you better ways to cope.

How we can help

Our work in La Plata centers on building skills you can use for a lifetime, not just symptom management. Here are three of the ways therapy with our team makes a difference:

  • Lifelong coping skills, the skills you use to get through tough times. Anxiety about public speaking, the death of someone you love, a promotion you didn't get, our psychiatrists in La Plata are trained to teach the practical skills that don't always come naturally.

  • Healthier ways to interact, we've all lost control and said or done something that hurt a relationship. Whether you've called your partner names or kept your feelings bottled up until they exploded, we can help you find better patterns.

  • Lower chronic stress, there are many ways to work on stress. We'll teach methods for calming mind and body, progressive muscle relaxation, guided visualization, deep breathing, and others.

Questions

Common questions from La Plata.

Do you offer in-person or online psychiatry in La Plata?
Both. Patients in La Plata can be seen in person at our Waldorf office, or by secure telepsychiatry (video) from anywhere in Maryland, with the same clinicians and the same treatment plan.
What insurance do you accept?
We accept 13 plans, including Medicaid, Medicare, Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Humana, United Healthcare, UMR, Priority Partners, Kaiser Permanente, Tricare, Wellpoint, and GEHA. If your plan isn't listed, call us, we'll verify coverage before your first visit so there are no surprises.
How soon can I get a first appointment near La Plata?
Most new-patient consultations are scheduled within the same week. The fastest way to book is by phone, call 301-710-4218 Monday through Saturday and we'll find a time that works.
Is online psychiatry as effective as an in-person visit?
For most psychiatric care, yes. Research on telepsychiatry shows outcomes comparable to in-person visits for evaluation, diagnosis, and medication management across conditions such as depression, anxiety, and ADHD. A video visit carries the same clinical depth as an office visit: the same history-taking, the same screening tools, the same treatment plan. Some situations are better suited to in-person care, and we will recommend our Waldorf office when that is the better fit.
