Mental health care shouldn’t feel like a logistical puzzle. For busy professionals, parents, and students in Northbrook, accessing quality psychiatric care often takes a backseat to other responsibilities. Traditional in-person clinics with rigid hours and long wait times don’t align with modern life. Lakeside Psychiatry addresses this by offering local specialist insight via the flexibility of online care. Here’s what makes us different:
When you’re navigating mental health challenges, that familiarity that makes your community tight-knit can sometimes make seeking help feel intimidating. Due to concerns about stigma or confidentiality, over half of adults delay care.
We are devoted to safeguarding your privacy at Lakeside Psychiatry. Our HIPAA-compliant platform ensures every session is secure and confidential. You can book an appointment with a licensed psychiatrist (from anywhere!) without worrying about who might notice.
Between corporate meetings and maybe volunteering with local organizations, your time is precious. We accommodate various schedules, including early morning and evening appointments, so you don’t have to sacrifice productivity or family time for care. Our streamlined process lets you book a virtual consultation in minutes using any device. Absolutely need to upend your day.
Mental health is deeply personal, and so is understanding the unique pressures of life in Northbrook. Our psychiatrists are licensed in Illinois and specialize in the challenges locals face, whether it’s seasonal affective disorder, academic stress, or burnout from high-pressure careers. With decades of combined experience, we provide medication management that’s both scientifically grounded and empathetic.
You’re more than a diagnosis. Maybe you’re a parent juggling ADHD while managing a household, a college student struggling with anxiety, or someone battling insomnia that disrupts your work performance. Whatever your story, we craft medication plans that align with your biology, lifestyle, and goals. We listen carefully, adjust thoughtfully, and partner with you to find solutions that fit.
At Lakeside Psychiatry, we focus exclusively on evidence-based medication management for adults and teens. Our areas of expertise include:
We do not provide therapy or counseling, allowing us to specialize fully in psychiatric medicine. This focus ensures you receive the most up-to-date, precision-driven care available.
While many practices split their focus between therapy and prescriptions, we dedicate our expertise solely to psychiatric medication management. This specialization means we stay ahead of advancements in treatments, offering options backed by the latest research. Whether you’re new to medication or seeking a second opinion, we explain your choices in clear, jargon-free terms.
Our telehealth platform is designed for lasting support. Everything happens online, from your first consultation to follow-ups and prescription refills. Need to reschedule? Use our patient portal. Concerned about possible side effects? Send a secure message. We handle the logistics so you can devote yourself to making progress.
Mental health isn’t static, and neither is your treatment. Hence, we'll track progress, adjust medication dosages during scheduled appointments, and address emerging issues. Think of us as your dedicated partners focused on empowering you to be productive in all aspects of life.
You shouldn't navigate mental health challenges alone or waste hours in traffic to get help. Lakeside Psychiatry brings expert psychiatric care to Northbrook residents right where they are.
