Dedicated to Your Family’s Mental Health
Fields Family Psychiatry, PLLC is a small psychiatric practice dedicated to the mental health of children, adolescents, and adults. We accept patients with a wide range of psychiatric needs, including depression and anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and autism. In addition, we have particular expertise in the care and treatment of pregnant and postpartum parents (including while breastfeeding), the care of LGBTQ individuals including the care of gender dysphoria, and the treatment of adolescents and young adults. While many psychiatry practices do not accept insurance, we are committed to accepting insurance to reduce the barriers to care that so many patients with mental illness face.
