About Us
Mental Health with a unique touch
Let’s face it—seeking mental health care can feel intimidating. Long waitlists, rushed appointments, and cold clinical settings are far too common. At Pride Psychiatry, we’ve flipped that model on its head.
We offer accessible, attentive, and human-centered care that makes you feel like more than just a chart number. Our practice is built on empathy and expertise—because you deserve both.
We see a broad spectrum of individuals with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, trauma-related issues, and more. We take time to listen, understand, and collaborate with you on a treatment plan that works for you—not a one-size-fits-all approach.
