Physician/Nurse Practitioners

Providing Comprehensive Outpatient Care to the Charlotte Area For Substance Abuse Treatment and Care

At University Psychiatric Associates, we believe mental health and substance abuse conditions are an interaction between mind, body, spirit and environment. The psychiatrist and psychiatric nurse practitioners in our practice emphasize the biologic portion of the illness and have specialized training in prescribing medications that treat a broad spectrum of mental health and substance abuse conditions.

Our goal is to find the proper medication or combination of medications that will restore our patients to full functioning with minimal side effects.

Open communication between provider and client is our goal.

Please note that there is a clinician on-call twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week.
