Helping You Rise Above
the Challenges of Mental Health
…from the comfort of your own space
Who We Are
High Ground Psychiatry is based out of Toano, VA, a town whose name comes from the Indigenous word meaning “high ground.” Our name honors that heritage while also reflecting our mission: to be a place of safety, support, and stability for those navigating mental health challenges. Just as high ground offers refuge and perspective, we strive to provide a steady foundation where patients can gain clarity and move forward with confidence.
We offer comprehensive psychiatric care throughout the state of Virginia through a secure, fully remote model. Our telehealth services allow patients to receive treatment from the comfort and privacy of their own space, making care more accessible and convenient without compromising quality. This flexibility helps us meet patients where they are, both literally and in their mental health journey.
Led by a board-certified psychiatrist, we serve adults (ages 18+) facing a range of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, and mood disorders. We take time to understand each patient’s unique story and tailor evidence-based treatment plans to meet their individual needs. Whether you’re seeking help for the first time or returning to care, we’re committed to creating a respectful, non-judgmental environment where you feel heard, supported, and empowered every step of the way.
What We Offer
Psychiatric Evaluations
Our comprehensive psychiatric evaluation is the starting point for your care. Your initial appointment allows our psychiatrist to gain a clear understanding of your mental health through in-depth discussion, diagnostic assessment, and review of your medical and psychiatric history. The evaluation provides the foundation for a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs, whether you're seeking support for a specific issue or exploring options for ongoing care. This service is designed to be collaborative, respectful, and focused entirely on helping you move forward with confidence.
Medication Management
Our medication management services provide ongoing support and careful monitoring for individuals using psychiatric medications as part of their treatment plan. During follow-up appointments, our psychiatrist will assess how you're responding to your current medications, make any necessary adjustments, and address any side effects or concerns you may have. We work collaboratively with you to ensure that your medication plan remains safe, effective, and aligned with your overall mental health goals.
Therapy
For those receiving medication management services through our practice, we offer individual therapy, in conjunction with medication, as a supportive and collaborative space to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Whether you're managing anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions, therapy can help you gain insight, develop healthier coping strategies, and build a stronger sense of self. Our approach is compassionate, evidence-based, and tailored to your unique needs and goals.
