We provide child and family treatment across age ranges. With advanced training in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, we are experienced in treating all types of childhood onset conditions. Not only is childhood and adolescence an important period of brain development, it is often a stressful period in life.
Psychiatric illness is extremely prevalent. Estimates show that approximately 1 in 5 adults in the U.S. experiences mental illness in any given year. The prevalence of Schizophrenia is a little over 1%, of Bipolar Disorder over 2.5%, and close to 7% of adults have a Major Depressive Episode in a given year.
Addiction is a brain disease that is characterized by compulsive engagement in rewarding stimuli despite adverse consequences. Individuals may be addicted to drugs (such as nicotine and heroin), or to behaviors (such as gambling). Addictions have been an increasing problem in today's society, with the number of drug dependent people increasing.
Forensic Psychiatry is the overlap of psychiatry and the law, and this realm encompasses many roles. We provide expert psychiatric opinions that may be helpful to courts and attorneys. These opinions may be required or helpful in a variety of criminal and civil cases. We are available to act as consultants on a case, or to perform evaluations, write reports, and be available as an expert witness.
Minhas Psychiatry is out-of-network for insurances. We accept cash, checks, and all major credit-cards. Upon payment, you will be issued a receipt which you may submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. To ensure that your insurance company will reimburse you, you may wish to call them ahead of time to inquire about out-of-network benefits and reimbursement rates.
