Convenient Access to Care! This is True North Psychiatry!
Now that you know a little bit more about me as a person, I thought I should tell you more about my psychiatry practice, True North Psychiatry™. Not only am I the owner of True North Psychiatry™, I’m also the psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) who provides all the client care.
I founded True North Psychiatry™ in 2021 to make it easier for adults and kiddos to access mental health services. Many adults had to take off work, drive to a brick-and-mortar clinic, attend their appointment in an unfamiliar and sometimes uncomfortable location, and return to work afterward. At the same time, many parents had to take off work, pick up their kiddo from school, drive to a brick-and-mortar clinic, attend the kiddo’s appointment in an unfamiliar and sometimes uncomfortable location, bring the kiddo back to school, and return to work afterward. Whew! That is a lot of driving and missed work to take care of your own or your kiddo’s mental health needs.
True North Psychiatry™ changes that by offering telehealth mental health services. I use Zoom, a HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform, to provide mental health services. This means that you’re provided with a link that you can join from a computer or your phone. No more spending extra time driving to and from brick-and-mortar clinics! You join your appointment from a location of your choosing that is convenient and comfortable for you.
The same format applies to kiddos who need mental health care. You get a link that you can share with a trusted teacher or counselor at the school to help your kiddo join the appointment, and you use the link to join your kiddo’s appointment from wherever you might be. No more spending extra time driving to and from work and school to attend appointments at brick-and-mortar clinics! I bring you together with your kiddo at locations that are convenient and comfortable for both of you.
I hope that by making it more convenient to access mental health care, more people will take the next step and schedule an appointment for themselves and/or their family members. So…what are you waiting for?! There is no better time than now to take control of your path and begin moving in the direction of who you are at your deepest point…your True North™.
