Everyone experiences changes in mood throughout life. However, when emotional highs, lows, irritability, sadness, or changes in energy become persistent and begin affecting daily functioning, they may be signs of a mood disorder.
At Adelpha Psychiatric Group, our physicians provide comprehensive evaluation and treatment for a wide range of mood disorders in adolescents and adults. We take time to understand symptoms, medical history, life circumstances, treatment experiences, and personal goals before making recommendations.
Treatment may include psychotherapy, medication management, lifestyle considerations, and ongoing psychiatric care tailored to each individual’s needs.

Many patients come to Adelpha without knowing exactly what condition they may be experiencing.
Symptoms often overlap. Anxiety can look like ADHD. Depression can occur alongside trauma. Mood changes may have many possible causes.
The purpose of the consultation process is not simply to assign a label. It is to understand the full picture and help determine what type of support may be most appropriate.
Whether you have an existing diagnosis, are seeking a second opinion, or are simply looking for answers, our team can help guide the next step.
Insurance support is part of making care accessible
The first step is a consultation process.
Thoughtful care starts with a thorough evaluation.
At Adelpha, getting started does not mean rushing into treatment without context. The first few visits start with an initial consultation period. This process includes at least two visits for adults and three visits for children and adolescents within the first month. This gives your physician or marriage and family therapist time to understand your history, current concerns, goals, previous treatment, and what kind of care may be helpful.
When appropriate, your physician or marriage and family therapist may ask to coordinate with your prior or current mental health providers, your primary care physician, or family members involved in your care. At the end of the consultation phase, we will share our impressions and recommendations. We will work with you to determine whether ongoing care with Adelpha is clinically appropriate and develop a comprehensive treatment plan.
