Yes! We offer both in-person and online psychiatric same-day appointments to ensure flexibility and convenience for our patients. Our virtual care services allow you to access therapy, psychiatry, and recovery support from the comfort of your own home, making it easier to fit mental health care into your busy schedule.

We aim to offer same and next day appointments Sunday through Friday, 8am to 7pm. The wait can occasionally be longer due to high demand but for the most part, we are able to accommodate patients within 48 hours.

Mindful Care is not a 24/7 facility; however, we are committed to being as accessible as possible for those in need of mental health support. Our regular hours are from 8:00am to 7:00pm, Monday through Friday, with limited availability on the weekends. We strive to meet the needs of our community with flexible scheduling, offering same day psychiatric or next-day appointments. Although we are not open around the clock, our team works diligently to ensure you can get the support you need quickly and efficiently.

Your first appointment at Mindful Care is designed to set the foundation for your individualized care plan. If you’re pursuing therapy, your visit will typically begin with a Biopsychosocial (BPS) assessment, which helps the clinician gain a comprehensive understanding of your mental health history, current challenges, and goals. For those seeking medication management, your initial appointment will include a psychiatric evaluation to assess your symptoms and determine the most effective treatment options.
During this session, the clinician will take the time to listen to your concerns, answer your questions, and develop a personalized care plan tailored to your needs. This collaborative approach ensures that your treatment is both effective and aligned with your goals for mental health and well-being.

Yes, medication can be offered during psychiatric visits but only following a psychiatric evaluation. The decision to prescribe medication is based on the provider’s assessment and your overall health to determine if it’s appropriate to proceed with specific treatments.

Our team is made up of Nurse Practitioner’s (NP) and Certified Physician Associate’s (PA-C) who will meet with you in-person or virtually. All of which are trained and certified to treat mental health patients. They work very closely with our Supervising Psychiatrists (MD) to coordinate and review treatment.

‍

Nurse Practitioners (NPs) and Physician Associates (PA-Cs) are licensed healthcare professionals who have successfully completed master's degree programs. These programs equip them with the skills to diagnose, prescribe medication, offer health education, and provide therapy. NPs and PA-Cs deliver healthcare services in primary and acute care settings, covering various specialty areas such as general medicine and mental health.

It depends on your appointment type – some are virtual and some are in person. Please confirm your visit type when scheduling.
