New Patients

Welcome to Roots & Wings Mental Health

Taking the first step toward mental health care can feel overwhelming, and we want to make the process as comfortable and straightforward as possible. At Roots & Wings, you are an active participant in your care. We take time to understand your concerns, history, experiences, and goals so we can develop an individualized treatment plan together. We offer telehealth psychiatric evaluations and medication management for children, adolescents, and adults in Alaska, Iowa, Kansa, Oregon, and Nevada.

Your First Appointment

Your initial psychiatric evaluation is a comprehensive appointment focused on getting to know you and understanding what brings you to care. We will review your current concerns and symptoms, mental health and medical history, medications, previous treatment experiences, and treatment goals. When appropriate, we will discuss diagnostic impressions and recommendations for next steps.

Before Your Appointment

New patients will be asked to complete required intake forms before their first appointment. Having an updated medication list, relevant medical information, and information about previous mental health treatment available can help us make the most of our time together.

Telehealth Appointments

Roots & Wings Mental Health provides care through secure telehealth appointments, allowing you to meet with your provider from the comfort and privacy of your own space. At the time of your appointment, you must be physically located in a state where your provider is licensed to practice. A reliable internet connection and a private location are recommended for your visit.

Insurance & Payment

Roots & Wings Mental Health is currently a self-pay practice and does not accept insurance. Reduced fee options available.

Appointment & Cancellation Policy

We understand that unexpected circumstances can arise. If you need to cancel or reschedule an appointment, please provide at least 48 hours notice. Missed appointments and late cancellations may be subject to a fee. Additional details regarding cancellation and no-show policies will be provided during the intake process.

Medication & Prescription Policy

Medication recommendations are based on each patient’s individual needs and are made following an appropriate clinical evaluation. Prescriptions, refills, and medication changes are addressed during scheduled appointments or according to practice policy. The prescribing of controlled medications is based on clinical appropriateness, applicable federal and state requirements, and the provider’s professional judgement.
