Outpatient Psychiatrist

Headlight offers a multiple disciplinary approach to mental healthcare, including therapy, coaching, support groups, medication management and self-care resources. Available via virtual visits or in-person, we make mental wellness easy and accessible. Our mission is to deliver mental health services in a way that’s easier and more human for everyone involved.

Our values

·      Deliver excellent service: We’re determined to deliver world-class care to our clients. We build long-      lasting relationships because we obsess over the details of our delivery and the quality of care.

·      Make things easier: Getting help with mental health can be challenging and confusing for a lot of people. We remove barriers and simplify the process because it helps our clients get help and allows us to grow and help more people.

·      Listen with empathy: Listen to each other with empathy. We value the deep understanding that creates a productive environment of collaboration, feedback, and support.

·      Learn and Grow: We are always curious to improve our practice and our process. As we learn and grow, we can help more people, and that’s what it’s all about.
