Please note our website is a growing free resource about Root Cause Psychiatry: just search "root psych" and you'll see us. We offer online root cause diagnostics on top of fast and easy typical psych meds with a focus on patient advocacy and convenience. Our goal is to make the process of getting treatment painless. We strive to accept insurances and advocate for patients; for example fighting with insurance if needed. Our team is committed to supporting you every step of the way while coordinating with your therapist and medical providers.
We work with: ADHD, Anxiety, OCD, Trauma, Mood, Impulsivity, Autism Spectrum, and Neurodivergence. We are slow to hire therapists and prescribers (due to a focus on finding genuinely caring, passionate, and extra educated clinicians). Still, we are expanding quickly. Please reach out, even if full we can direct you to helpful resources or colleagues.
By combining conventional treatments with functional medicine, we investigate root causes (nutritional, genetic, gut biome, and hormonal). We also send you and your outside physicians/therapists summaries of our encounters. If you have seen many psychiatrists and not gotten anywhere, please don't hesitate to reach out.
