Finding the right mental health care shouldn’t be confusing or overwhelming. At Entryway, we provide structured, expert-led psychiatric care designed to meet each individual’s needs—whether through a comprehensive team-based psychiatric evaluation or individual focused psychiatric sessions.

πBeyond diagnosis, we connect individuals and families with the right care and support for lasting progress.
Navigating mental health care can be overwhelming. Conflicting advice, unclear diagnoses, and disconnected providers often leave individuals and families feeling stuck. We’ve been there—not just as clinicians, but as parents and individuals who have experienced the system firsthand.

Mental health challenges can feel confusing and isolating. We are committed to providing individuals and families with a clear, thoughtful understanding of their needs—eliminating uncertainty and creating a path forward with confidence.
No one should feel lost in the mental health system. We ensure that each person receives a personalized, evidence-based roadmap designed to foster healing, resilience, and long-term well-being.
We don’t just assess—we coordinate care, track progress, and adjust plans as needed, ensuring individuals and families stay on the right path with the right support.

For individuals and families with more complex mental health needs. Some mental health concerns require a deeper level of assessment, expert collaboration, and a structured treatment plan. Our team-based evaluation provides a thorough, multi-provider diagnostic process to ensure a clear diagnosis and a coordinated care plan.
Individuals who need expert psychiatric care with a structured evaluation tailored to their treatment needs. Not everyone requires a team-based, multi-provider assessment. If your needs are more straightforward, you can start with focused psychiatric sessions for treatment planning, medication management, and expert psychiatric support—all within a structured evaluation and ongoing care model.

Traditional mental health care is fragmented—one provider evaluates, another manages medications, and patients are left piecing everything together with little coordination.
At Entryway, we take a different approach. Our psychiatric team—including a psychiatrist, psychiatric nurse practitioner (PMHNP), and care manager—works together throughout the entire process. This ensures seamless communication, a well-integrated treatment plan, and a level of collaboration rarely available in outpatient mental health care.
π With Entryway, expert psychiatric care isn’t just a series of disconnected appointments—it’s a structured, team-based process designed for clarity and continuity.
At Entryway, we take a multi-source, data-driven approach to psychiatric evaluation—integrating clinical assessments, real-world input, and collaborative insights. This ensures greater diagnostic accuracy, more effective treatment planning, and improved long-term outcomes.
β Comprehensive Multi-Source Input – We gather insights from families, educators, past providers, and standardized psychometric tools to develop a full clinical picture that goes beyond a single interview.
β Structured, Evidence-Based Methodology – Our approach includes custom assessment measures designed to quickly identify key concerns and risk factors, ensuring treatment is tailored to each individual’s needs.
π By combining data, clinical expertise, and real-world context, we provide evaluations that go beyond surface-level assessments—leading to more precise diagnoses and better treatment outcomes.
Traditional mental health care is fragmented—one provider evaluates, another manages medications, and patients are left piecing everything together on their own.
At Entryway, our psychiatric team collaborates throughout the entire process, ensuring seamless communication, well-integrated care, and a treatment plan that actually makes sense.
We don’t just give you a diagnosis—we create a structured, practical treatment plan with clear next steps to guide care.
π With ongoing care coordination, treatment evolves as patients’ needs change—ensuring the right level of support at every stage.
Mental health care is often financially unpredictable, with complex insurance processes, hidden fees, and unexpected costs that make it difficult for families to plan for care.
At Entryway, we provide flat-rate pricing and bundle services when care is more complex, allowing us to pass along savings while ensuring better outcomes. Our structured approach ensures that receiving the care you need costs less than if
services were booked individually.
π No hidden fees, no surprise bills—just clear, structured, expert-led care designed with transparency and value in mind.
Mental health care should be organized, intentional, and tailored to each individual. At Entryway, we follow a six-step process that ensures patients receive the right level of care.

Understanding Your Story & Gathering Insights
To ensure the best possible care, we take time to understand each patient’s unique history, symptoms, and experiences.
β For comprehensive team-based evaluations – We take a broad, multi-source approach to gathering relevant information, ensuring that the diagnostic process is thorough, collaborative, and well-informed.
β For individual focused psychiatric sessions – Clinical history, symptom patterns, and treatment response are reviewed to develop a structured care approach that ensures treatment is focused and effective.
π Some patients may move directly to an Initial Consultation & Assessment, while others may require additional insight gathering.
Initial Consultation & Assessment
Your first session is designed to explore symptoms, medical history, and treatment goals so we can provide the best care possible.
β For comprehensive team-based evaluations – A structured, in-depth psychiatric assessment conducted by both our psychiatrist and psychiatric nurse practitioner, integrating clinical discussions, history, and relevant input from multiple sources.
β For individual focused psychiatric sessions – A specialized consultation led by a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) and Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), a clinician with advanced training in both psychiatric care and primary care. This session focuses on understanding current challenges, refining care plans, and establishing a structured approach to treatment, including medication management when appropriate.

Data-Driven Analysis & Expert Team Review

π. Whether through a collaborative team-based evaluation or structured psychiatric treatment, every patient receives expert care designed around their level of clinical complexity.
Moving Forward with a Clear Plan
With a treatment plan in place, we help patients take the next steps toward meaningful progress.

π Our care manager will help determine the most appropriate path. If you start with an individual focused psychiatric session and a comprehensive evaluation is recommended, we’ll guide you through next steps.
π The comprehensive team-based psychiatric evaluation maximizes value for patients with higher-acuity or multi-layered needs. This bundled approach includes multi-provider assessments, diagnostic analysis, treatment planning, and follow-ups—offering a more cost-effective solution than booking services separately.
Understanding what happens next is just as important as getting the right diagnosis. After completing your evaluation, we provide a personalized roadmap that includes:
β A clear explanation of findings – Including diagnostic impressions and how various factors contribute to your mental health needs.
β Step-by-step treatment guidance – Structured recommendations for therapy, school or workplace accommodations, and psychiatric care as needed.

Entryway offers ongoing psychiatric treatment designed to be:
πΉ Structured – A clear, expert-led process with no guesswork.
πΉ Transparent – Flat-rate pricing with no hidden fees.

Entryway does not accept insurance. We prioritize providing personalized, high-quality psychiatric care tailored to each individual's unique needs. Operating as a private-pay practice allows us to:
β Provide More Comprehensive & Collaborative Care – Insurance often limits the scope and depth of psychiatric evaluations. By operating outside of insurance constraints, we ensure that patients receive a thorough, team-based evaluation and structured treatment planning without time restrictions.
β Offer Bundled, Cost-Effective Care for Complex Cases – Instead of charging per session for each service, we bundle multi-provider assessments, diagnostic analysis, treatment planning, and follow-ups into one transparent package. This allows us to offer more value at a lower cost compared to paying for these services separately.
β Ensure Flexibility & Individualized Treatment – Insurance-driven care often focuses on short-term symptom management rather than comprehensive treatment planning. Our approach allows patients and providers to collaborate on the best course of care—without external limitations.
β Streamline Care Without Delays – Many insurance-based providers have long waitlists and require pre-authorizations that delay access to psychiatric care. At Entryway, patients receive timely evaluations, expert care, and direct access to providers without unnecessary administrative barriers.
β Provide Easy Access to Superbills for Reimbursement – Patients who wish to seek reimbursement from their insurance provider can access detailed superbills through our secure patient portal at any time.
π By offering a private-pay model, we ensure that every patient receives expert, structured psychiatric care that prioritizes accuracy, depth, and ongoing support—without compromise.
Our streamlined process makes it easy to begin care at Entryway. The first step is to connect with our care manager to determine the best path forward.
