Know Where You Stand Before Anything Else

Mental health screenings are one of the most underused tools in healthcare. A validated screening gives you and your provider a clear, objective starting point — cutting through the noise of "maybe it's stress" or "I've just been off lately" and getting to real answers.

What mental health screenings at our practice include:

  • Validated screening tools for anxiety (GAD-7), depression (PHQ-9), ADHD (ASRS), PTSD (PCL-5), and mood disorders

  • Provider review and clinical interpretation of results

  • Clear explanation of what your results mean — in plain language

  • Recommended next steps: monitoring, further evaluation, or treatment referral

  • Integration with your existing primary care or women's health record

Ideal Candidate

Who Should Get a Mental Health Screening?

Mental health screenings are appropriate for anyone who wants a baseline assessment of their mental wellness — whether you're symptomatic or just want to understand where you stand. They're especially valuable as a starting point before a full behavioral health consultation.

A screening is a good fit if you:

  • Are experiencing symptoms you can't quite name — persistent worry, low motivation, difficulty concentrating, emotional flatness

  • Want a quick, low-commitment first step before a full psychiatric evaluation

  • Are a primary care or women's health patient and want mental health included in your overall wellness picture

  • Are a parent concerned about a teenager's emotional health (13 and older)

  • Were previously treated for a mental health condition and want to reassess your current status

*A screening is not a diagnosis. Results inform next steps and are reviewed with your provider. A full behavioral health consultation may be recommended based on your results.

Process Overview

How Mental Health Screenings Work

1. Questionnaire Completion

You'll complete one or more brief, standardized screening tools. Most take 5–10 minutes each and are completed before or at the start of your appointment.

2. Provider Review

Your provider reviews your responses alongside your health history and any symptoms you've described during the visit.

3. Results & Interpretation

Your provider walks you through your results in plain language — what the scores mean, what they suggest, and what they don't.

4. Next Steps

Based on your results, your provider will recommend the appropriate next step — whether that's monitoring, a follow-up consultation, medication evaluation, or a referral.

"The care team truly has the heart of caregivers. They patiently answered all of my questions and helped me feel a lot better."

"Lakisha is a fantastic provider! She listens and collaborates with her patients and is very skilled at inserting the hormone pellets. I’ve done this many times and she provides a smaller area of bruising than I’ve had with other providers and it’s virtually pain free! Lakisha has gone over and above to provide exceptional care!"
