Our Ambulatory Psychiatry Services provide comprehensive evaluation and treatment for patients and families whose lives have been touched by an array of mental health conditions, evaluating and treating individuals in every life stage, including children and adolescents, adults and geriatric patients.
Please note that our services are mostly evaluation and consultation services. This means that we provide you with an assessment/evaluation & treatment recommendations.
We then provide options as to where you can receive the recommended care. This is often to resources outside of Michigan Medicine Psychiatry.
Care within our Psychiatry clinic may be offered on a case-by-case basis. Factors that affect our ability to offer continued treatment include our clinicians’ overall caseload availability, and also whether or not our clinic model is a good fit for the care you need.
During this pandemic our department has worked hard to provide virtual care through video visits for as many individual and group visits as possible supporting our patient’s mental health needs. Keeping people distanced physically by using video visits is one step both our patients and providers can take to help reduce the spread of COVID-19.
Virtual visits are conducted through the patient portal. If you need to set-up a portal account, click here or contact the portal team. The portal team can also help with technical questions and issues with conducting a virtual visit. The portal team contact phone number is: 734-615-0872, Option 1, Mon-Fri 7am-7pm, or Sat 8am-1pm. For questions about the portal please visit this page.
