NeuroPsych Wellness Center

Centering its practice on medication management, NeuroPsych Wellness Center in Fairfax, Virginia, connects psychiatric prescribing with in-house psychotherapy and diagnostic testing. They serve children ages 5 and older, teens, adults, and older adults. Clinicians review symptoms and treatment history, explain medication options, and monitor response and side effects. Therapists work with individuals, couples, and families, using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to address thought patterns, emotional reactions, and relationship difficulties.

TMS and Spravato for Depression

For depression that has not responded adequately to previous treatment, clinicians evaluate patients for transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) or Spravato. Patients generally attend TMS 5 days weekly, remaining awake while a coil delivers magnetic pulses. For adults receiving Spravato, clinicians supervise nasal spray administration and monitor patients for at least 2 hours in private or shared rooms. They review progress and adjust maintenance frequency according to the patient’s response.

Diagnostic Evaluations and Focused Programs

Psychologists evaluate psychiatric symptoms, learning, and cognition, while clinicians use pharmacogenetic testing to inform medication choices and conduct pre-surgical psychological evaluations. Perinatal clinicians address pregnancy and postpartum mental health. For students, providers coordinate psychiatric treatment and document academic accommodations for established patients. Their smoking cessation program combines medication planning with individual and group counseling. Patients can access telepsychiatry, and students can arrange in-person or virtual appointments, including evening and weekend options.
