GREETINGS!

Most of our providers are only doing virtual telehealth appointments. We are in the process of switching telehealth platforms. We will be sending out emails to notify patients when the switch will happen. Please make sure we have updated contact information and to check your spam folder for any emails from us. For now we are still using Medici, and will have Medici as a back up during the transition to the new platform.

Dr. Isbell is happy to see her patients in person at the office. If you would like to see Dr. Isbell for an office visit please contact us to request an in person appointment. We do require masks to be worn inside the building and our office.

Staff is working in the office only part-time so please check with your provider or the office staff if you are coming in for any reason.  

TelePsych Agreement

We now offer TMS treatment for Major Depression!

 

Our psychiatrists are board certified, professional, compassionate, thorough and well versed in the most effective treatments and standards of care. They provide treatment for all individuals in need, including the “hard to treat” patient who has not responded well to therapy and other medication regimens. Patients initially receive a full medication evaluation, and when possible, our psychiatrists collaborate with other professionals integral to the patient’s treatment and well being. Our patients are well informed about the efficacy, potential side effects, and risks associated with taking medications. Thus, patients will receive pertinent information regarding the efficacy and side effects of the various medications. When working with children, we believe in cultivating a collaborative approach with our patients, as well as their parents, to empower them in the difficult process of choosing from the treatment options. Each patient is cared for as an individual with unique and specific needs.

The doctors and staff at Peace Psychiatry strive to treat all patients with the utmost respect and compassion. Our practice offers a safe, non-judgmental environment in which to seek care.
