Services/Products

Child and Adolescent Patients: Psychiatry for children and adolescents is an area of medicine, which specializes in diagnosing, treating, and preventing childhood and adolescent psychiatric disorders. Outpatient and consultative care is offered in order to evaluate and treat a variety of problems. Adult Patients: When we find ourselves struggling with symptoms related to mental health, the one thing that usually prompts us to seek treatment is the significant impact it has on our lives. Once you have made the decision to seek treatment, knowing where to go and whom to trust can be quite frustrating and daunting. We provide the best care with complete confidentiality, in a comfortable environment that you would expect, creating an environment where you can feel comfortable and at ease. Addiction Patients: Due to advances in detoxification methods such as Suboxone and Buprenorphine, we provide outpatient detoxification to many of those that thought they would have to go in-patient for detoxification. In most cases the patient can continue working during detoxification. We provide the newest way to detoxify comfortably and completely from opiates.
