Snellville Psychiatrist — Your Neighbor in Mental Health Care
Expert psychiatric services just 15 minutes from Downtown Snellville. "Where Everybody's Proud to be Somebody" deserves care that treats you like somebody.
Proud to Serve Snellville: A True Community
Snellville has always marched to its own drum. From its founding by 17-year-old Thomas Snell—an English immigrant who built a general store in the 1880s—this city has valued independence, community, and a certain stubborn pride. The famous slogan "Where Everybody's Proud to be Somebody" isn't just marketing; it's how Snellville operates.
Today's Snellville is a thriving community of over 20,000 residents. The revitalized Snellville Towne Center hosts farmers markets and concerts. Families enjoy Briscoe Park and the greenway trails. Students attend top-rated Gwinnett County schools. It's close enough to Atlanta (about 33 miles via US-78) to access big-city jobs, but far enough to maintain small-town character.
Best of all for Snellville residents seeking mental health care: our Lilburn office is just 15-18 minutes away via Highway 78 or Lawrenceville Highway. No fighting Atlanta traffic—just a quick drive through familiar Gwinnett County neighborhoods to compassionate psychiatric care.

Mental Health in Snellville: Breaking the Stigma
Snellville's close-knit community is one of its greatest strengths—and can also make seeking mental health care feel complicated. In a city where you run into neighbors at Publix, at church, at Friday night football games, there's often hesitation about "being seen" at a psychiatrist's office.
But here's the truth: mental health challenges don't discriminate. Depression affects Snellville firefighters, ADHD impacts students at South Gwinnett High School, anxiety burdens parents trying to balance work and family. The same resilience and self-reliance that defines Snellville should include the strength to ask for help when needed.
At Next Step Psychiatry, we serve many Snellville families. Our Lilburn location is close enough to be convenient but provides a bit of geographic distance from your immediate neighborhood. And for those who prefer maximum privacy, we offer telepsychiatry—expert care from the comfort of your own home.
