Board-Certified Psychiatrist
Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine
Founder, Northstone Psychiatry
We specialize in ADHD, Depression, Anxiety, PTSD/trauma OUD/MAT, Insomnia, OCD, Bipolar disorder and other mood disorders, as well as thought disorders such as schizophrenia.
As Board-Certified Psychiatrists (medical doctors with an additional 4 years of mental health specialty training), we are qualified to make any diagnosis and prescribe any treatment including any medications, controlled substances and/or therapy.
If you’re unsure about your specific diagnosis or where your symptoms fit, don’t worry. Whether you’re dealing with burnout, brain fog, feeling overwhelmed, or just not feeling like yourself, it’s our job to tell you the diagnosis and make an effective treatment plan, not yours.
Yes. As Board-Certified Psychiatrists, we are qualified to make any diagnosis and prescribe any medication including scheduled/controlled substances if it is indicated for your treatment.
This can include Stimulant medications (Adderall, Vyvanse, Ritalin, etc), Benzodiazepines (Valium, Klonopin, Xanax, Ativan, etc), ‘Z-drugs’ for insomnia (Ambien, Lunesta, etc) and MAT medications for substance use (Suboxone, Buprenorphine, Subtex, etc).
In most cases, yes. Our goal is for you to leave your initial evaluation with a clear understanding of what is happening (a diagnosis) and an actionable plan to fix it. If medication is indicated for treatment, we can send the prescription to your pharmacy immediately so you can start treatment the very same day.
Yes. Unlike many specialized psychiatry practices that are cash-only, we believe the highest-quality medical care should be available to all. We are in-network with and accept major insurance plans (including Aetna, Cigna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, UHC/Optum and others) to cover the cost of your psychiatric evaluation and all follow-up appointments, making expert diagnostic care accessible and affordable.
Why this matters: We believe that mental healthcare should be both high-quality and accessible to all. Not taking insurance often means $500+ psychiatric evaluations and $300+ follow up visits every month. Although this is profitable for other clinics that refuse to take insurance, these ‘cash-only’ clinics bypass standard medical oversight and lack basic accountability. To make matters worse, providers at these out-of-network cash clinics aren’t even required to maintain basic board-certification.
At Northstone Psychiatry, we believe elite medical care is defined by clinical excellence, not high fees. By maintaining in-network status, we adhere to the rigorous quality standards required by major health systems. This ensures that when you book with Northstone, you’ll receive safe, physician-led diagnosis and treatment from a board-certified psychiatrist – often for as low as $0 depending on your plan.
While therapists and psychologists provide counseling, a Psychiatrist is a medical doctor and licensed physician who then completed an additional 4 years of residency training specializing in treating mental health conditions, including depression and other mood disorders. Psychiatrists are fully licensed to prescribe all medications, make any diagnosis, and perform any therapy.
“Board-Certified” Psychiatrists have done all of this and then sought additional credentialing by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology, to ensure the absolute highest standards, experience, knowledge and credentialing of any mental health provider anywhere. And yes, when you book with Northstone, you’ll see a Board-Certified Psychiatrist.
If you have been in therapy or other treatment but feel stuck, or if your symptoms are not fully responding to your current treatment, or if you’ve developed brand new symptoms – seeing a medical doctor ensures you are getting professional answers and evidence-based solutions.
First, when you book with Northstone Psychiatry, you’ll see a real doctor: a licensed, board-certified psychiatrist who completed medical school and an additional four years of residency training specializing in mental health conditions. Having the expertise required to distinguish between different symptoms and their causes is essential to ensure proper diagnosis and treatment. By choosing Northstone you’ll put your treatment in the hands of a doctor with the highest qualifications, training, knowledge and experience.
Second, we are a truly local, NC-physician-owned company. Unlike the other “big box” nationwide telehealth chains that are funded by corporate interests, offer ‘one-size-fits-all’ psychiatric evaluations and treatments while switching your provider every other visit, we’re able to bring direct physician-to-patient care personalized to you.
Third, we are able to offer you a fast, easy and convenient experience with telepsychiatry. No waiting weeks or even months for treatment. No dealing with traffic, waiting rooms and inconvenient appointment times. Whether you’re at home, at work, or even out of town, we can see you at a time that is convenient for you through any phone, tablet or computer and give you a diagnosis and treatment plan the same day. We strive to be very flexible with appointment times and can often schedule visits in the evenings or later if needed.
Finally, we offer a truly empathetic and patient-centered approach to our care. We want to get to know the real you, so we listen first and talk second. Mental health concerns are complex and can look different for everyone – we take the time to ensure you get the right diagnosis and the right treatment from day one.
We often have appointments available within days. Unlike large hospital systems and other clinics where wait times can be months, we prioritize accessibility so you can get the diagnostic clarity and treatment you need when you actually need it. By the end of your first appointment, we’ll usually have your diagnosis and treatment plan prepared.
It’s very simple, we promise. You don’t need to download any software or apps, make phone calls, mail in old records or even be good with technology.
Step 1 – Book an appointment at a time convenient for you
Step 2 – Before your appointment, we’ll email or text you a secure link. Just click that link from your phone, tablet or computer and you’ll be connected directly to your provider in a private, HIPPA-compliant video room
Step 3 – Talk to a board-certified psychiatrist. We’re approachable, easy to talk to and here to listen. We’ll give you the diagnostic clarity you need and formulate a treatment plan the same day. If needed we can immediately send medications directly to your pharmacy.
