Psychiatric care and services

Psychiatric evaluation and medication management by secure video for patients throughout California, with psychotherapy incorporated when appropriate.

You do not need to know your diagnosis before reaching out.

Is InnerGrove a good fit for your needs?

This practice may be a good fit if you are:

  • An older teen or an adult
  • Located in California at the time of each visit
  • Able to attend regularly scheduled outpatient appointments
  • Seeking psychiatric evaluation or medication management, with psychotherapy integrated into psychiatric care when appropriate
  • Able to meet by video in a private, uninterrupted setting

Another setting may fit better if you need:

  • Formal evaluations or documentation for disability, leave, accommodations, fitness-for-duty, forensic/legal, court, or other institutional purposes
  • Long-term controlled-medication treatment, except that ADHD stimulant treatment may be considered when clinically appropriate
  • Psychotherapy-only care without medication evaluation or management
  • Emergency evaluation, crisis care, or a higher level of care

Insurance coverage and clinical fit are evaluated separately.

InnerGrove Psychiatry is in network with Cigna and Anthem Blue Cross. See Insurance & Fees for self-pay and accepted Medicare arrangements.

Visit structure and length

Initial appointment — 90 minutes

A comprehensive first visit to review history, current concerns, goals, and initial treatment planning.

Follow-up appointments — generally scheduled for 30 minutes

Most 30-minute follow-up visits review symptoms, medication response, side effects, and current concerns; brief supportive psychotherapy may also be incorporated when helpful.

Longer follow-up appointments — 60 minutes when more time is helpful

When clinically helpful and available, the longer visit can provide additional time for more focused psychotherapy, including CBT-based or other approaches, while continuing psychiatric care.

How psychotherapy fits into care

Psychotherapy can be incorporated into psychiatric treatment when helpful, but InnerGrove is not a psychotherapy-only practice. If you are seeking ongoing psychotherapy without medication evaluation or management, a therapist who focuses on psychotherapy will usually be a better fit. If you already have a helpful therapist, you are generally encouraged to continue.

Service limitations

Some needs may be better served in another setting. Please review the fit considerations above before requesting an appointment.
