Mental Health Services in Lithonia, GA

Psychiatric Evaluation

Care starts with a full psychiatric evaluation of your symptoms, your history and every treatment attempted before now.

Medication Management

Your prescriptions stay under review, with doses and medications adjusted as your response and any side effects become clear.

TMS Therapy

TMS Therapy uses magnetic pulses on mood-regulating brain regions and is FDA-cleared, non-invasive and free of surgery or sedation.

Spravato Esketamine

Eligible adults with treatment-resistant depression receive Spravato under supervision at our office, always combined with an oral antidepressant.

Therapy

Therapy helps patients make sense of what drives their symptoms and build coping strategies that hold up between appointments.

Psychological Testing

Psychological testing measures cognition, mood and personality objectively, which matters most when a diagnosis has proved difficult to pin down.

Psychiatric Weight Loss Evaluation

This evaluation considers how mood, behaviour and medication interact with weight before any management plan is agreed.

Meet MindBodySoul Mental Health Team

The team here works on the basis that a treatment plan built without the patient’s input rarely holds up. We go through what has been tried before, what helped and what did not, and explain the thinking behind each recommendation. Lithonia patients tell us that being properly listened to is what they notice first.

Your Spravato Treatment Session

Pre-Treatment Preparation

Preparation guidance is sent ahead of every visit: no food for two hours beforehand, no liquids in the last 30 minutes, and a ride home already booked.

Nasal Spray Administration

The nasal spray is taken by you, in a private treatment room, with a healthcare provider supervising from start to finish.

Post-Dose Observation

A two-hour minimum observation follows, during which staff monitor your blood pressure and alertness before you are discharged.

After Your Treatment

No driving or machinery until the next day after a full night’s rest, which is why your transport home is arranged in advance.

Who Is Spravato For?

Spravato esketamine is intended for adults with treatment-resistant depression, meaning depression that has continued despite adequate trials of several antidepressants. Suitability is decided by a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation with our providers rather than inferred from your medication history.

What Patients Say About Us

“I did tms here. This treatment works! The staff and Dr. Were wonderful. Highly recommend.”

Elissa Fineman

“My experience at the office was amazing Asia and Takerra was very welcoming from the moment I walked in. At first I was a little upset about the wait but when i went back to speak with Dr Judith Ngulefac it was worth the wait she listened to me and she took her time putting a plan together for me nothing was rushed and I did not feel pressured like I have felt in the past with other doctors. She just made me feel very comfortable.”

Sasha Tate

“Great service from entire staff from my time of arrival until I left. I was pleased to find a local practice that had the services I needed and I could speak to someone personable. I met with Judith who was very professional, knowledgeable about my situation and showed exceptional empathy throughout my visit.

Highly recommended. Thank you !!”

Frequently Asked Questions

Where do Lithonia patients go for treatment?

Lithonia is served by our practice. Call the office and we will confirm the location you should attend, give you directions and parking guidance, and run through the appointment times currently open.

Does insurance cover Spravato for Lithonia patients?

Spravato is covered by many commercial insurance plans, by Medicare, and by some Medicaid plans for patients who meet the criteria, though what applies to you depends on your individual policy. Our team will check your benefits before treatment begins and explain clearly what your plan covers and what it does not.

Do I stay on my current antidepressant?

Yes — Spravato is prescribed alongside an oral antidepressant, not as a replacement for one, so you continue the medication your provider has you on. Any changes to that prescription are made deliberately by your provider as part of your wider plan, never as a side effect of starting Spravato.

How do Lithonia patients travel home afterwards?

No — you cannot drive yourself after a Spravato appointment, and driving is off-limits until the following day once you have had a full night’s rest. Lithonia patients should arrange a lift with family or a friend, or plan a taxi or rideshare, at the point of booking rather than on the day.
