Secure Telehealth Appointments for Baltimore Residents
Baltimore residents — Maryland's largest city, a mix of historic neighborhoods, world-class medical institutions, and tight-knit communities — often find it difficult to fit in-person appointments into a busy week, especially given traffic along I-83, I-95, the Baltimore Beltway (I-695), and the Jones Falls Expressway. Telehealth removes that barrier: you attend from home or any private location in Maryland.
After you request an appointment and complete your new-patient information, you'll meet with your provider by video at your scheduled time. Office hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and Saturday, 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM.

Serving the Baltimore Community
Baltimore is Maryland's largest city, home to a dense patchwork of neighborhoods each with its own character — from Inner Harbor high-rises to rowhouse blocks in Fells Point, Canton, Mount Vernon, and Hampden. That density and diversity mean a wide range of mental health needs: adults managing anxiety or depression, students and professionals navigating burnout, and families seeking ADHD evaluations for their children.
Telehealth is especially valuable in a city where traffic on the Beltway, I-83, and I-95 can turn a short appointment into a half-day commitment. By meeting your provider over secure video, you keep consistent follow-up care without the commute — an important factor in effective psychiatric treatment.

- An unhurried conversation about your symptoms, history, and goals
