What a visit costs you in travel

Each way
Secure video visit0 min
In person, from 76180~25 min

Loop 820 round to Airport Freeway, then south on SH‑360. Both routes reach the same clinicians and the same plan — one of them costs you the better part of an hour on top.

How to start

Three steps, and none of them is waiting.

The hardest part of this is already behind you: you are reading a page about it. What follows is deliberately short, because the number of steps between deciding and being seen is the thing that decides whether most people ever get there.

Pick a time

Book online in about a minute, or call (817) 755‑5707 and tell the office which hours are genuinely free. Say up front if you want video, in person, or have not decided.

We check the benefit

Before the first visit, the office verifies your behavioral-health coverage — which is rarely the same as your medical benefit — so the number is known in advance rather than arriving as a statement.

You are seen, usually within days

A full evaluation, not a fifteen-minute triage. You finish it holding a plan, and knowing exactly who to contact between appointments.

No desk between you. The first appointment is scheduled long because a psychiatric history is not something you can take at speed.

What the first appointment actually covers

~60 min
First
The shape of it over time When it started, what changed, what it currently stops you doing. Not a symptom checklist read back at you.
Then
Everything already tried Each medication and therapy, the dose, how long, and the specific reason it ended. This is the most useful thing you own and it is routinely never asked for.
Then
Sleep, alcohol, and the actual load What is being carried at work and at home, and how much of the picture is being made by five-hour nights rather than by a mood disorder.
Last
A plan you helped choose Medication, therapy, testing, or a deliberate decision to watch and review — with the reasoning said out loud, in ordinary words.
Core care

Four things that make up most of what we do.

Psychiatry is often sold as a long menu. In practice, almost every North Richland Hills patient is here for one of these four, and the rest of the list exists to answer the cases where these have already been tried.

Conditions we treat

What people in 76180 and 76182 actually come in with.

Almost nobody arrives with a tidy label. They arrive with a description — of a year that has been harder than it should have been, of sleep that stopped working, of a temper that no longer fits the provocation. Sorting that into something treatable is the job.

Anxiety & panic disorders

The most common reason adults here book, and the one most often mistaken for a personality trait. High-functioning anxiety is still anxiety: it simply pays its own way, which is why it goes untreated for a decade while quietly costing you sleep, patience and most of your evenings.

Panic attacks in traffic on 820 or in a meeting are not a sign you are breaking. They are a treatable symptom with a well-evidenced response, and the response is not white-knuckling it.

Depression

It rarely announces itself as sadness. More often it is flatness, a shortening fuse, and the slow disappearance of things you used to look forward to — noticed by everyone around you some months before you name it yourself.

Read more

Treatment-resistant depression

Two adequate trials, no adequate response. That is a recognised clinical category with its own pathway — not evidence that you are the problem.

Read more

ADHD in adults & teens

Measured with Creyos rather than guessed from a checklist any exhausted adult would fail.

Read more

PTSD & trauma recovery

For first responders, veterans and anyone carrying something that has not stayed in the past where it belongs.

Read more

Bipolar disorders

Frequently diagnosed as depression alone for years, because the elevated periods felt like productivity rather than illness.

Read more

OCD

Intrusive thoughts and the rituals built to quiet them. Treatable, and far more common than the silence around it suggests.

Read more

Insomnia & sleep disorders

Sleep is not a side issue that resolves once the mood lifts — very often it is the lever that lifts it. Waking at three every morning is a clinical finding, and it is treated as one here rather than met with another prescription for something that stops working in a fortnight.

Read more

General mental health

Burnout, grief, a diagnosis that has never been reviewed, or simply a year that has gone badly enough to warrant a professional opinion. You do not need a name for it before you book — working out what to call it is the point of the first visit.

Two ways to be seen

Video or in person — both are real appointments.

Nothing about a video visit is a lesser version of the other. Same clinician, same length, same notes, same prescriptions. The only difference is whether you spend an extra fifty minutes on 820.

Secure video, anywhere in Texas

How most North Richland Hills patients actually receive their care. HIPAA-compliant, built for clinical use rather than ordinary consumer video chat, and nothing is recorded. You need a phone, tablet or laptop and a door that closes.

It works from a home office in Thornbridge, from a parked car between meetings, and from a hotel room on a work trip. Evaluations, therapy and the great majority of prescribing all run this way.

No travel Nothing recorded Statewide Same clinicians

Our one office — 2100 N Hwy 360, Ste 405B, Grand Prairie, TX 75050.

In person, in Grand Prairie

There is one office and we will not pretend otherwise: 2100 N Hwy 360, Ste 405B, Grand Prairie, TX 75050, roughly 25 minutes from 76180 by way of Loop 820, Airport Freeway and SH‑360. Free parking, and a waiting room nobody from your street is sitting in.

Worth the drive for a first evaluation if you would rather meet someone in the same room, and required for SPRAVATO, which is administered and monitored on site.

Your clinicians

A small team, on purpose.

Board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioners with a supervising psychiatrist behind them. Small enough that the person who evaluates you is the person you keep seeing, and that the office knows who you are when you call.

Patient stories

What it has been like for Mid-Cities patients.

★★★★★
I had a referral sitting in a drawer for eighteen months because every practice I rang quoted me a wait into the next year. Here I was booked the same week, on a Thursday at five, and I did not have to explain the whole thing twice.
Dana R.HomeTown, North Richland Hills
★★★★★
Two previous prescribers, four medications, and not once had anyone asked me why the first one stopped working. The genetic testing answered that in a fortnight, and the plan we built afterwards was the first one I understood.
Marcus B.Off Davis Boulevard, NRH
★★★★★
Every appointment we were offered for my son collided with practice, and driving to Grand Prairie at four o'clock was never going to happen twice. A video slot at 4:30 solved a problem I had privately given up on.
Lauren K.Smithfield, North Richland Hills

Insurance & cost

In-network with 20+ plans — and we check before you come.

A behavioral-health benefit almost never matches the medical one on the same card, which is why we verify yours rather than estimate it. Self-pay rates are published for anyone who would rather no claim existed at all.

Questions

The things people ask before they book.

Not a physical one, and we would rather write that plainly than list a suite number on Davis Boulevard that nobody sits in. The practice runs from a single office at 2100 N Hwy 360, Ste 405B in Grand Prairie — about 25 minutes from 76180 if you take Loop 820 round to Airport Freeway and drop south on SH‑360. What matters more is that most North Richland Hills patients rarely make that drive. Evaluations, prescribing reviews and therapy all run over encrypted video to any address in Texas, so the office is the option rather than the requirement.
Usually within days. The three-month waitlist that most people run into on the first phone call is the single most common reason a decision to get help quietly expires, so we hold capacity back deliberately rather than booking the calendar solid. You can reserve a time yourself on the booking page, or call (817) 755‑5707 and the office will start from the hours you actually have free instead of reading out slots you already know you cannot make.
All of it, in most cases. Texas allows psychiatric evaluation, therapy and the great majority of prescribing to be handled by telehealth, and for adults in North Richland Hills that is how most care actually runs: the first evaluation, the follow-ups, the medication adjustments. The platform is HIPAA-compliant and built for clinical use rather than ordinary consumer video chat, and nothing is recorded. The exceptions are narrow and we will tell you about them up front — SPRAVATO is administered on site and monitored, and a small number of controlled medications need at least one in-person visit.
Both routes are open. We hold in-network contracts with more than twenty carriers — United Healthcare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Aetna, Anthem, Optum, Medicare, Medicaid, Oscar, Oxford, Superior HealthPlan, Magellan, Carelon, Meritain and MultiPlan among them — and self-pay rates are published for anyone who would prefer no claim exists at all. A plan's behavioral-health benefit almost never matches its medical one, which is exactly why we verify yours rather than estimate it. Ask the office to run it before the first visit: email Info@soundmindspsych.com or call (817) 755‑5707.
That is the whole design. Weekdays run 9am to 6pm and Saturday clinic runs 10am to 4pm, and the late-afternoon and Saturday slots exist precisely because they are the ones that survive contact with a commute on 820, a shift pattern, or a child's practice schedule. A video visit taken from your office with the door shut, from a parked car, or from a hotel room on a work trip is a complete appointment — not a downgraded version of having come in.
It is a conversation rather than an intake form read back to you. Expect to cover how long this has been going on and what it stops you doing, every medication or therapy already tried and the specific reason each one ended, how you are sleeping, what you are drinking, and what is genuinely being carried at work and at home. By the end you should be able to say what the diagnosis is in ordinary words, and leave holding a plan you helped choose — medication, therapy, testing, or a deliberate decision to watch and review. Nothing gets prescribed on the way past the front desk.
Yes, in adults and adolescents. A lot of the adult referrals here arrive sideways: a parent sits through a school evaluation for their child and recognises a fairly exact description of their own school years in it. Creyos gives us measured attention and working-memory performance, which is firmer ground than a symptom checklist that almost any chronically overextended adult will score highly on. If a stimulant is genuinely the right answer, we prescribe it and review it on the schedule Texas law sets out. Where the picture reads more like years of five-hour nights, alcohol, or untreated anxiety wearing ADHD's clothes, we will say so instead.
We do. A parent or guardian consents and stays part of the plan, but the session is still built so a teenager can say something honest without an audience. Families at Richland, Birdville and Fossil Ridge tend to land on the late-afternoon video slots, which survive athletics, band and tutoring considerably better than a drive to Grand Prairie does — and which spare a fifteen-year-old the experience of being seen walking into a clinic.
It might not be, and that is the point — what is needed is a different method rather than another draw from the same hat. Bring the entire history: what was tried, at what dose, for how long, and what made you stop. That list is the most useful thing you own and it is routinely never asked for. What that history buys is the chance to bring in information none of the earlier attempts ever had. GeneSight reports how your genes affect the metabolism of particular compounds, BrainView measures neural activity directly, and Creyos separates a genuine attention deficit from a mood disorder imitating one. Once two adequate trials have failed, SPRAVATO becomes a legitimate option and we are a certified treatment center for it.
Accepting new patients

You can be seen this week.

Not next season, and not after a referral has worked its way through somebody's queue. Pick a time that fits, or call and let the office work backwards from the hours you actually have. The first appointment is the long one; everything after it is easier.
