I was looking for a trusted psychiatrist Charlotte nc because I was struggling with anxiety, depression, fear, and past trauma. My experience with Nisha Kotecha and Kalia was very supportive and professional.
I absolutely love my therapist Clarissa! She genuinely cares and has never made me feel like she’s doing this for a check. When we have our session she shows me undivided attention ,takes notes, and remembers things from the last session. I’m so thankful to have her!!!!
My session with Nisha Kotecha was awesome. She listened to me and answered all my questions. I am looking forward to the next session. The company also has great customer service . They respond quickly with answers to your questions. Rog is a super customer service rep .
My session with BJ is always above and beyond what I could ever ask. I am thankful for how she carefully helps and guides me.
I have had the privilege of developing a great relationship with my psychiatrist. I feel understood and well taken care of. My treatment is a success because of how well I’m treated.
My experience with Kalia has been amazing. I decided to try virtual therapy and I am not disappointed. I feel connected to her, just like I would in the office. I am so glad that I gave this a try because I definitely would have missed out on a great thing. And I don't have to leave home.
I also see Nisha and I am just as happy with her. So if you are looking for someone to help you, please consider either of them, you won't be disappointed.
Highly recommend them . Ms Natashia has been helping my daughter a lot . Thank you.
Depression is more than feeling sad after a difficult day. It is a common mental health condition that affects the way you think, feel, and function. Depression can influence your energy, motivation, relationships, work performance, physical health, and overall quality of life.
While everyone experiences sadness occasionally, depression lasts longer and often interferes with daily activities. The good news is that depression is highly treatable with the right support.
If feelings of sadness, hopelessness, low energy, or loss of interest are affecting your daily life for more than two weeks, speaking with a therapist can help.
Everyone's recovery is different. Some people notice improvement within a few months, while others benefit from longer-term support.
Our psychiatric providers offer medication management when appropriate and work closely with your therapist to provide coordinated care.
