Practice Information

Integrated Psychological Assessment Services (IPAS) is a group practice of socially conscious clinicians that was founded off the premise that mental health services should be accessible to all. Our clinicians are as diverse as our clientele and our aim is to provide a safe space for all our clients in a way that honors their unique cultural, gender or sexual expression. IPAS has licensed and associate licensed clinicians that are social workers, marriage and family therapists, professional counselors, and psychologists and although our training may differ, we pride ourselves in understanding how your cultural or ethnic experiences in the world impacts your mental health. We take time to understand how generational trauma, family patterns and regional differences impact all of our clients.

In our mission to provide accessible mental health services to all, we accept most insurances and are able to help our clients navigate the maze of insurance reimbursements. We also offer sliding fee services for our most vulnerable.
