New Patients at Synergy NeuroPsychiatry

Beginning psychiatric care can bring up many questions. You may be seeking support for persistent symptoms, looking for a clearer understanding of a diagnosis, reviewing medication options, or wondering whether an advanced outpatient treatment may be appropriate.

At Synergy NeuroPsychiatry, we provide physician-led psychiatric care for adolescents age 15+ and adults in Portage, Kalamazoo, and nearby communities.

Beginning the Conversation

Every patient comes in with a different history, set of concerns, and reason for seeking care.

Some people are looking for support with depression, anxiety, OCD, trauma symptoms, attention concerns, or mood changes. Others may have tried treatment before and want to better understand what options may fit next.

Our role is to listen carefully, consider the full clinical picture, and help you explore care options with clarity and respect.

What We May Discuss

A psychiatric evaluation may include discussion of:
Current symptoms and how they are affecting daily life
Psychiatric and medical history
Previous diagnoses, medications, and treatment response
Sleep, mood, anxiety, attention, trauma symptoms, and daily functioning
Relevant medical, neurological, and safety considerations
Your questions, goals, and concerns
An evaluation does not mean a specific medication or treatment will automatically be recommended. It is an opportunity to better understand what you are experiencing and discuss what type of support may be appropriate.

Care for Adolescents and Adults

We welcome new patients who are adolescents aged 15+ and adults, including elderly patients 65+.

Our practice provides psychiatric care for a range of mental health concerns.

Treatment Conversations May Look Different for Each Patient

Some patients may be seeking psychiatric evaluation or medication management. Others may want to learn whether options such as BrainsWay Deep TMS, SPRAVATO®, or GeneSight testing may fit within their care plan.

Recommendations are individualized. We consider symptoms, diagnosis, treatment history, medical background, safety factors, and patient goals before discussing next options.

Insurance and Billing Questions

We work with several insurance plans and welcome patients to contact our office with billing or payment questions.

Coverage and patient responsibility can vary based on your individual plan and benefits.
