Psychiatry FAQ
Why see a psychiatric provider?
Many people look for medication support when symptoms start affecting sleep, work, school, health or relationships. First-timers, people coming back to care, and those wanting a second opinion are all welcome.
How long will treatment last?
It depends on your history and goals. Once you’re feeling well, we’ll talk through whether to stay on medication or taper.
Do you offer telehealth?
Yes, anywhere in Minnesota, plus in-person visits at two Twin Cities offices.
Do you take insurance?
We accept many major plans and offer private pay. Your costs depend on your copay, coinsurance and deductible, and we verify benefits before your first visit.
Is your practice LGBTQ+ affirming?
Yes. Our team is trauma-informed, LGBTQ+ affirming and family-friendly.
