Online openings within a week, book instantly on our website. If you've "tried everything", consider that we can also do (beyond typical meds): 1. Advanced Scope Med Management + 2. Root Cause Psychiatry (see below). Advanced Med Management allows for newer (sometimes investigational) approaches (ex: Home Ketamine, Low Dose Naltrexone for Depression). We're fortunately empowered to accept insurance but still provide an "exorbitant cash only” level of concierge care, thanks to a fantastically organized and responsive admin team at Ann Arbor Psych. It's an “advocate for the patient” culture that we appreciate daily.
Root Cause Psych means looking underneath symptoms at underlying medical causes, based on cutting edge research. When appropriate, we test and address biomarkers related to hormones, inflammation, vitamins, minerals, gut biome, and genetics. Importantly, we also incorporate your deeper psychological themes and life history into our decision making.
We may assess hormones, inflammation, nutrients, gut health, and genetics, while integrating life history and psychological themes. We treat ADHD, depression, anxiety (social/panic), PTSD, bipolar/mood swings, impulsivity, and OCD. Our goal is to provide a useful roadmap in a world where fewer can afford services.
