the process

How help happens

Each step is designed with one thing in mind: helping you move towards your goals, together and with clarity.

01

Psychiatric Evaluation

Your first appointment is 60 minutes - time to get to know you, take a complete history, discuss what's been going on, and start moving towards the right diagnosis and next steps — together.

02

Medication Management

If medication is appropriate, it will be prescribed carefully and followed up on regularly. You'll understand what you're taking, why, and what to watch for.

How it works →
03

Treatment Planning

A diagnosis without a plan isn't enough. We work together to build a structured approach that accounts for your goals, your circumstances, and your preferences.

Supportive Psychiatric Care

Ongoing appointments that go beyond prescription refills. Your progress will be tracked, adjusted as needed, and we'll maintain a consistent relationship over time.

New Patient Info
01

Request an appointment

Book directly through the calendar, no phone tag, no guessing availability. Feel free to email us any inquiries or give us a call. Once scheduled, you'll receive a confirmation with the next steps.

02

Your evaluation

A 60-minute telehealth appointment. We'll review your history, listen to what's been happening, and work towards a clear picture of where you are and where you want to be.

03

A plan you understand

You'll leave with a confirmed or working diagnosis, a structured plan for moving forward, and answers to your questions. Nothing is ever handed down without an explanation or your approval.

Conditions Treated

What we treat

Umbrella Mental Health evaluates and treats a wide range of psychiatric conditions in adults. Below are the presentations seen most frequently.

Anxiety

Most people who seek psychiatric care are dealing with anxiety in some form. Whether it's persistent worry, panic attacks, or specific fears, the right treatment depends on getting the diagnosis right — and that takes more than a checklist.

Depression

Depression affects how you think, sleep, and function — not just how you feel. Medication can help, but only when it's chosen carefully and adjusted based on how you're actually responding to it.

ADHD

Adult ADHD often goes undiagnosed for years, mistaken for depression, anxiety, or simply the way someone is wired. A thorough evaluation distinguishes between them and determines whether — and how — to treat it.

Mood Disorders

Bipolar disorder and cyclothymia are frequently misdiagnosed as depression alone. Getting this distinction right is critical — the treatment for mood cycling differs from the treatment for unipolar depression.

OCD

OCD is often under-recognized, especially when it doesn't look like the stereotype. Intrusive thoughts, mental rituals, and compulsions that feel impossible to stop all warrant a proper clinical evaluation.

PTSD

Post-traumatic stress can present as hypervigilance, avoidance, sleep disruption, or emotional blunting. Psychiatric care focuses on reducing symptom severity and supporting stability — typically alongside therapy.
