Our Lilburn office sits just 20 minutes away via I-20 and I-285, providing expert psychiatric care with the discretion that a close-knit town sometimes requires.

Mental Health Needs in Rockdale County
Small-Town Stigma
In communities where everyone knows everyone, seeking mental health care can feel risky. Concerns about gossip, judgment, or running into acquaintances at a local psychiatrist's office prevent many Conyers residents from getting help. We offer care outside your immediate community with complete confidentiality.
Limited Local Options
Rockdale County has fewer mental health providers per capita than denser metro areas. This creates long wait times for local psychiatrists—often months for new patients. We offer same-day appointments, getting you care when you need it, not when there's finally an opening.
Economic Pressures
Conyers and Rockdale County face real economic challenges, including household stress from financial pressures. We understand that seeking psychiatric care is itself a financial decision, and we work with most major insurance plans to make treatment accessible.
Faith & Mental Health
With strong religious communities including the historic Monastery of the Holy Spirit, many Conyers residents integrate faith into their lives. We respect spiritual beliefs while providing evidence-based psychiatric treatment—these approaches complement rather than conflict with each other.

Why Conyers Residents Choose Next Step Psychiatry
Privacy Outside Rockdale County
In a county where you might see your neighbor at the grocery store, church, or your child's school, mental health privacy matters. Our Lilburn location provides care away from your immediate community, with complete confidentiality protected by law.
Same-Day Appointments—No Months-Long Waits
The shortage of psychiatrists in Rockdale County means local wait times can stretch for months. We offer same-day appointments for new patients, because when you finally decide to seek help, you shouldn't have to wait until your crisis becomes critical.
Easy Drive Against Traffic
Heading west then north from Conyers typically puts you against the main commuter flow. Most patients find the 20-minute drive easier than expected, with free parking when you arrive—none of the downtown Atlanta hassles.
Advanced Treatments Not Available Locally
We offer SPRAVATO™ therapy for treatment-resistant depression—a breakthrough treatment that many Rockdale County residents would otherwise have to travel much farther to access. If traditional antidepressants haven't worked, this could be your answer.

Frequently Asked Questions from Conyers Patients
Why should I drive to Lilburn when there are doctors in Conyers?
Several reasons: First, the wait times for psychiatrists in Rockdale County can be months, while we offer same-day appointments. Second, some patients prefer the privacy of receiving care outside their immediate community. Third, we offer advanced treatments like SPRAVATO™ that aren't readily available locally.
Will my pastor/church find out I'm seeing a psychiatrist?
Absolutely not. Your mental health treatment is protected by strict medical confidentiality laws. We cannot share information about your care with anyone—including religious leaders—without your explicit written consent. Many people of faith benefit from both spiritual support and psychiatric treatment.
I've tried antidepressants before and they didn't work. Can you help?
Yes—this is actually an area where we specialize. For treatment-resistant depression, we offer SPRAVATO™ (esketamine) therapy, an FDA-approved treatment that works differently than traditional antidepressants. Many patients who've tried multiple medications without success find relief with this approach.
Do you treat children and teenagers?
Yes, we see patients ages 5 and up. For Conyers families, this means parents and children can receive care from the same practice, allowing for coordinated treatment that understands the whole family picture. We have extensive experience with childhood ADHD, anxiety, and depression.
What's the best route from Conyers to your office?
Take I-20 West to I-285 North (toward Greenville), then I-85 North to Exit 99 (Indian Trail/Lilburn). Turn left and our office is on Lawrenceville Highway. The drive is typically 20-25 minutes outside of rush hour, and you'll generally be driving against the main traffic flow.
