When you're facing mental health challenges, taking steps toward diagnosis and medication can feel daunting. And finding a mental health provider that truly cares about you can feel impossible.
South Chesapeake Psychiatry was founded to provide personalized, effective care without rushing through appointments.
Whatever brought you here, there is a path forward. We’re here to help you find it.
Diagnosis is the first step towards mental well-being. We'll conduct a detailed evaluation to understand your symptoms and create a treatment plan that meets your needs.

Self-pay BHRT evaluations for women navigating perimenopause, menopause, mood changes, poor sleep, fatigue, and brain fog.
Gain a deep understanding of your diagnosis, how it's affecting you, how your medication will affect you, and more.
You’ll have direct phone & email access to your provider, with a quick, kind response when you need it.
We’ll work with your insurance on medication prior authorizations to help keep your prescriptions accessible — even though SCP visits themselves are self-pay.
Our self-pay model allows for longer, more personalized appointments, giving you the time and care you need.
It’s a big step to prioritize your mental health, and we’re glad you’re here. Getting diagnosed and trying new treatments is a journey, and we're committed to guiding you through it. Waiting for a callback or facing brief, rushed visits will never be part of your experience here. As a client, you deserve quality, personalized care from expert psychiatric nurse practitioners who are available and accountable to you. With a combined 50+ years of psychiatric and mental health experience, our team is here to help you prioritize your mental health and take steps towards a stronger you.
Contact us to schedule a 60-minute 1-on-1 assessment session to understand your symptoms and get a professional diagnosis. This first session costs $300 and can be done virtually or in-person at our clinic.
Based on your evaluation and diagnosis, we'll prescribe a medication and schedule a 30-day follow-up appointment to see how you're doing.
Sometimes it takes a while to find the right treatment options for you. We'll meet with you every 3 months - or more often as needed - to make sure your medication is working and support you as you adjust.
Should you need us in between appointments, your provider will always be available by phone or email with a quick response.
South Chesapeake Psychiatry is a self-pay practice for psychiatric evaluations and medication management, so we do not bill insurance directly for those services. Transforming Minds Interventional Psychiatry (TRIP), our SPRAVATO-focused service line, does accept and process insurance for SPRAVATO® treatment. For SCP psychiatric care, we can provide paperwork and guidance for possible out-of-network reimbursement, and we can help with medication prior authorizations when needed.
We’re located at 200 Carmichael Way #604, Chesapeake, VA 23322.
