Why should I choose Meah Modern Psychiatry?
In recent years, the stigma surrounding mental health has begun to shift—more people than ever are prioritizing their well-being and seeking support. With that growth has come an increase in options for care. But more options don’t always mean better care. At Meah, we take that seriously. Your time is valuable, and your care should reflect that. That’s why we’ve built our practice around what matters most:
• Care led by psychiatrists—experts in mental health diagnosis and treatment
• Access to both evidence-based and innovative treatment options, all in one place
• Flexible care with both in-person and virtual appointments
• Simple scheduling and direct access to your Meah team
Getting help for your mental health shouldn’t feel overwhelming. We’ve made it easier to access high-quality care, so you can start feeling better, sooner.
Are appointments confidential?
At Meah, we prioritize your privacy and have taken intentional steps to ensure a high level of confidentiality, including:
• A private parking lot
• Private rooms designed with state-of-the-art sound mitigation
• The option for a private entrance with direct access to your appointment room, allowing for minimal or no interaction with others
• Secure, encrypted, HIPAA-compliant software for virtual appointments and paperwork
While the stigma around mental health continues to improve, we understand that privacy remains important for many reasons. We are committed to ensuring that what you share stays between you and your provider.
For more information about the limits of confidentiality or to arrange enhanced privacy options, please contact our office, we’re happy to help.
Which areas do you serve?
We serve patients throughout the state of Colorado through our secure, state-of-the-art telehealth platform, allowing you to receive care from the privacy and convenience of your home.
For those who prefer in-person visits, we also offer appointments at our centrally located office in Colorado Springs.
Do you offer accelerated TMS?
This specialized protocol involves multiple TMS sessions per day over the course of five consecutive days. Accelerated TMS has been shown to be both safe and highly effective, with many individuals experiencing significant improvement—or even remission—of depressive symptoms by the end of the treatment course.
The program requires five full days of treatment, with each day lasting approximately nine hours. At Meah, we’ve designed this experience to be as comfortable and supportive as possible. During your time with us, you’ll have access to:
• A private TMS treatment room
• A dedicated space to relax between sessions, complete with Wi-Fi, a comfortable recliner, and a large TV with streaming services
• Complimentary meals delivered from local restaurants, along with snacks and beverages available throughout the day
Accelerated TMS is not currently covered by insurance. Please contact our office at 719-409-7578 for pricing and additional details.
Do you offer Ketamine Treatment?
Yes, we do. For more information on Ketamine Therapy, visit our Treatment Page (internal link to ketamine therapy page).
What is a psychiatrist?
A psychiatrist is a medical doctor (M.D. or D.O.) who, after completing four years of college and four years of medical school, has completed four additional years of specialty training through a residency program in psychiatry. During residency, psychiatrists are trained in both inpatient and outpatient psychiatry, including therapy. They are also typically exposed to a wide variety of hospitals and treatment settings to ensure they are competent and prepared to assess and treat a wide variety of patient populations. During their residency, psychiatrists also spend time training in sub-specialties of psychiatry such as child & adolescent, addiction, eating disorders, forensic, consult-liaison, Med-Psych (medically complex patients with psychiatric conditions), geriatric psychiatry and dementia care and emergency psychiatry. As a part of training, psychiatric residents also must complete several months of training in neurology, internal medicine and emergency medicine to build a sound foundation of understanding in these specialties which often overlap with psychiatry or psychiatric presentations.
As physicians, psychiatrists are licensed to prescribe medications, and are extensively trained in psychopharmacology. During their outpatient training, psychiatrists also receive a significant amount of training in psychotherapy (“talk-therapy”, CBT, ACT, DBT, grief-work, psychodynamic, etc). Throughout residency, psychiatric residents are trained and supervised by board-certified psychiatrists who ensure that residents are competent in all areas of training.
At the end of their four year residency program, a psychiatrist can become board certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology and continue medical education throughout his or her career to maintain that certification.
In brief, a psychiatrist is a physician who specializes in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mental illnesses, including substance abuse/addiction and eating disorders. Psychiatrists are trained to assess the mental, emotional & physical aspects of psychological disturbance, which allows them to make an accurate diagnosis and comprehensive treatment plan. A psychiatrist has the authority to prescribe medications to patients, but a psychologist or therapist cannot.
