When to Seek Help

If you’ve searched for a psychiatrist near me or are unsure where to start, we are here to guide you through every step of the process.

What Is Age-Specific Psychiatric Care?

Mental health needs change with age, and so should treatment. Age-specific psychiatric care focuses on understanding developmental, biological, and environmental factors unique to each life stage.

At New Light Psychological Services, we provide a full continuum of care:

  • Adolescent Psychiatry (ages 12–17) - Addressing behavioral concerns, anxiety, depression, and ADHD in teens through family-integrated therapy.

  • Adult Psychiatry (ages 18–64) - Supporting adults through life transitions, mood disorders, trauma, and work-related stress.

  • Geriatric Psychiatry (65+) - Promoting mental wellness for seniors facing memory loss, grief, or medication-related changes.

Our approach ensures every patient receives tailored, compassionate support whether you are a parent seeking guidance for your teen, or an adult navigating new mental health challenges.
