Practice Information

Are you thinking about taking steps to improve your mental health and don't know where to start? Do you wonder if you should talk to someone or if you should start medication? We can help navigate those first steps in getting treatment.

At Plaza Psychology and Psychiatry, we are here for you in a variety of ways. We offer therapy, medication management including suboxone, EMDR, TMS or Spravato for treatment resistant depression, couples therapy, family therapy, and other services. With both in-person and telehealth options, we are usually able to meet your needs and help you meet your goals. We understand that some people call because they have a major mental illness and need ongoing support. Others call when a life transition becomes difficult, or when loved ones tell them they should go see someone. At Plaza, we have many providers who have their own areas of expertise and interests.

The owners of Plaza are clinicians too, and we strive to ensure that compassion and empathy are part of every experience and interaction you have with us. We provide therapy to school aged children and above, and we provide medication management for teenagers and above.

Has someone told you that you should talk to someone? Call us. We want to talk to you.

Why should I choose your practice?

You should choose our practice because we believe relationships and care starts with the front office staff. Our office staff will answer the phone, and they will ask questions that enable them to find a provider that will work for you and with you. Our front staff will get to know you by name (especially if you come in-person). You will see the same faces in the office. Our practice is founded on the belief that relationships matter. Sometimes needs and relationships change. With our range of providers and expertise, we are usually able to accommodate you for continuity of care.
