What an Online Psychiatric Evaluation Includes
Your first appointment is a comprehensive conversation with a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner or clinical nurse specialist. We'll discuss your personal and family history, current symptoms, any previous treatment or medications, and what you're hoping to get out of care. From there, we work with you to build a treatment plan targeted at your specific symptoms — which may include medication, a referral to a therapist, or both.
We provide telehealth evaluations for adults age 18 and older for depression, anxiety and panic disorders, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, PTSD, sleep disturbance, and mood or emotional regulation concerns. Every appointment is conducted by secure video, so there's no waiting room and no commute.

Do I need to travel anywhere for my evaluation in Southeastern Massachusetts & the SouthCoast?
No. Every appointment is conducted by secure video from wherever you are in Massachusetts. There is no waiting room and no commute — you'll need a private space, a stable internet connection, and a device with a camera.
What happens during the first appointment?
The initial evaluation is a comprehensive conversation about your history, current symptoms, and treatment goals. Your clinician will discuss your background, ask about previous treatment or medications, and work with you to build a plan tailored to what you're experiencing.
Which insurance plans do you accept?
We're in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Harvard Pilgrim Healthcare, Optum, Tufts Health Plan, Wellpoint, United Healthcare, HPI, Mass General Brigham, Carelon, UMR, and UniCare. Self-pay options are also available. We are not able to bill Medicare, Medicaid, or supplemental plans.
Is this appropriate for a first-time mental health evaluation, or only for people already on medication?
Both. Many patients come to us for a first psychiatric evaluation; others are transferring care or looking to reassess an existing diagnosis and treatment plan.
