Mental Health & Addiction Treatment Services
Welcome to Carolina Psychiatry and Addiction Services, a trusted community-based provider for mental health and addiction services. Our practice is dedicated to providing compassionate and personalized psychiatric care that empowers individuals to lead fulfilling lives and begin their recovery journey.
Carolina Psychiatry and Addiction Services offers psychiatric care remotely and in-person at our Greenville, SC and Charlotte, NC locations, to support clients at their needs and comfort level. Tele-psychiatry works similarly to an in-person session: You meet with a mental health provider to discuss your concerns and seek solutions. The sessions merely are conducted via phone or computer, from the comfort of your home or wherever you have a good internet or cell phone connection.
