“I underestimated how hard it would be leaving my toxic marriage, but with Kerrie’s help, I was able to regain focus, built confidence and take charge of my mental health again.”
— CINDY C., A Step Ahead Psychiatry Client
I've been seeing Teresa for some time now, she is amazing to work with, I feel very heard and cared for. Teresa was recommended to me after my former provider dropped the ball, I felt so lost, but she worked closely with me to find a med regimen that has finally restored me to a steady state. I cannot recommend Teresa and her colleagues enough.

Our services
Medication Management
Our Medication Management services are designed to provide comprehensive, individualized care for patients experiencing a wide range of mental health conditions. This service includes a thorough psychiatric evaluation, careful medication selection, and ongoing monitoring to ensure treatment is both effective and well-tolerated.
Medication management goes beyond prescribing. Our providers take the time to understand each patient’s symptoms, medical history, lifestyle, and treatment goals in order to develop a personalized plan. Regular follow-up appointments allow for thoughtful adjustments, side effect management, and education, empowering patients to actively participate in their care.
Through evidence-based treatment and collaborative decision-making, our goal is to help patients achieve improved emotional balance, enhanced daily functioning, and a better overall quality of life.
Ketamine Treatment
Ketamine Treatment is a specialized service at A Step Ahead Psychiatry and one of our primary areas of focus. This innovative therapy is designed for individuals who have not experienced adequate relief from traditional mental health treatments, including standard medications and psychotherapy.
Ketamine has been shown to provide rapid and meaningful symptom relief for certain mood and anxiety disorders by working differently than conventional antidepressants. Treatment begins with a comprehensive evaluation to determine appropriateness and safety, followed by carefully monitored dosing in a controlled clinical setting. Each treatment plan is individualized, with ongoing assessment to optimize effectiveness and support long-term improvement.
SPRAVATO® Treatment
SPRAVATO® (esketamine) nasal spray is an advanced, FDA-approved treatment for adults with treatment-resistant depression (TRD)—for individuals who have not experienced adequate relief after trying two or more oral antidepressants. At A Step Ahead Psychiatry, SPRAVATO® is a key area of clinical focus and an important option for patients seeking effective alternatives to traditional therapies.
Unlike standard antidepressants, SPRAVATO® works on the brain’s glutamate system, offering a rapid-acting approach that can lead to meaningful symptom improvement for some patients. Treatment is provided in a safe, controlled clinical setting under medical supervision, with careful monitoring before, during, and after each session to ensure safety and comfort.
SPRAVATO® may be used with or without a concurrent oral antidepressant, depending on individual treatment needs. Each patient begins with a comprehensive evaluation to determine appropriateness, followed by a personalized treatment plan designed to support both short-term relief and long-term stability.
For patients who feel stuck, discouraged, or overwhelmed by ongoing depression, SPRAVATO® offers renewed hope and a clinically proven path forward as part of a comprehensive, evidence-based treatment strategy.
GLP-1 Weight Management Treatments
(Semaglutide & Tirzepatide)
Our GLP-1 weight management treatments, including Semaglutide and Tirzepatide, offer a medically supervised approach to weight loss and metabolic health. These treatments are designed to help individuals who have struggled to achieve sustainable results through diet and exercise alone.
GLP-1 medications work by regulating appetite, improving insulin sensitivity, and supporting healthier metabolic function, helping patients feel fuller longer and reduce cravings. Treatment begins with a comprehensive medical evaluation to determine appropriateness, followed by a personalized dosing plan and ongoing monitoring to ensure safety, effectiveness, and long-term success.
The Mental Health & Weight Connection
Weight and mental health are closely linked. Conditions such as depression, anxiety, stress, and emotional eating can significantly impact metabolism, motivation, and long-term weight management. Conversely, challenges with weight can affect self-esteem, mood, and overall emotional well-being. By addressing weight management in a clinically guided, supportive setting, patients often experience benefits that extend beyond physical health—including improved mood, energy, and confidence.
At A Step Ahead Psychiatry, our goal is to support whole-person wellness, recognizing that meaningful, lasting change occurs when both mental and physical health are treated together.
Wellness Injections
Our Wellness Injections are designed to support energy, metabolism, immune health, and overall vitality through targeted, nutrient-based treatments. Options such as Vitamin B12, Lipo-C, and other supportive injections provide essential nutrients that may be difficult to maintain through diet alone, helping the body function at its best.
These quick, in-office treatments can help enhance energy levels, improve mood and mental clarity, support weight management, and promote more restful sleep. Each injection is administered as part of a thoughtful wellness approach, with recommendations tailored to individual health goals and needs.
By nourishing the body at a cellular level, wellness injections can complement mental health care and lifestyle changes—helping patients feel more balanced, rejuvenated, and resilient in their daily lives.

Our team is committed to guiding you through the process, ensuring that you receive the care and information necessary to make informed decisions about your health and wellness.
