Our Mission

Our primary vision for Accelerated Psychiatry is to do right by people. This includes patients, referring colleagues, the community, and our own treatment team. We started this clinic from scratch because we believe that we can help more people, and have far less provider burnout, by reimagining a clinical practice centered on excellent patient care.  We put a great deal of thought into each aspect of our practice, always striving to minimize paperwork and barriers. We truly hope that we can help as many people as we can—as quickly as we can—with high-quality, evidence-based, rapid-acting interventions, with the flexibility to evolve as psychiatric research progresses. We listen to our patients, and we heed your advice because everyone has a voice when it comes to our care model.  We are excited to have you be a part of it and look forward to working together!

 

Our Values

Everyone Deserves Psychiatric Care

We strive to be on as many insurance panels as we can, including Medicare and Medicaid

Through Inbox Health, we offer payment plans to help make treatments more affordable even when finances are tight

For patients who are unable to establish with a psychiatrist, we accept referrals from collaborative / integrated care settings and Primary Care Provider (PCP) / Therapist pairs

Authenticity

Friendly, knowledgeable staff welcome you as part of a community

We take a conversational, less formal approach, because we believe expertise is not an excuse for treating people with different life experience as less than equal

Small team approach means we know each other well and enjoy working together

Appreciate and respect each patient’s unique experiences, needs, and knowledge

 

Collaboration, Openness, Practicality

We provide a transparent, convenient, and thorough online referral process and messaging platform for referring providers using ReferralMD software

Our electronic health record system, Osmind, allows patients to fill out intake information and forms online and communicate with us directly through the Osmind smartphone app
