The Benefits of Telepsychiatry In Missouri 


We know that life gets busy, and booking an in-person appointment can be complicated. In today's fast-paced world, juggling the demands of work, family, and personal life can sometimes leave our mental health on the back burner. This is where Telepsychiatry comes in, offering a lifeline for those struggling to make time for in-person appointments. With the convenience of online sessions, you can now access professional mental health care from the comfort of your home or office. 


Say goodbye to long commutes, waiting room anxiety, and strict appointment schedules. Telepsychiatry allows you to incorporate mental health care into your busy schedule, making it easier than ever to prioritize your mental well-being.


Another great thing about Telepsychiatry is that it breaks down geographical barriers, allowing everyone access to quality mental health care. Whether in a big city or a rural community, you can connect with experienced professionals who understand your unique challenges and needs. This not only improves access to care but helps end the stigma surrounding mental health disorders.


With Telepsychiatry, you can now begin your journey to improved mental health, knowing that expert guidance is just a video call away.

For many mental health conditions, Telepsychiatry appointments are as beneficial as in-person appointments. Telehealth allows patients to connect with trusted providers from the comfort of their homes whenever it’s most convenient.

IV Ketamine Treatment AND Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation


These two treatments have risen to show their effectiveness over recent years, and literature is showing them to be among the most effective treatments for many psychiatric disorders.

Ketamine has shown itself to be particularly effective with treatment-resistant depression or TRD, post-traumatic-stress-disorder or PTSD, social anxiety, and suicidal ideation. Provided in a series of infusions, or oral or nasal spray, ketamine brings a dramatic difference the first infusion in some, but more often the change is experienced during and after the third, fourth, or fifth infusion.

TMS is a non-medication and non-invasive treatment that requires placement of a magnetic coil over the left dorsolateral prefontal cortex daily for about 20 minutes at a time. This continues daily for about 30-45 days. But you can begin to experience a real difference in 14 days. TMS can be effective in treatment resistant depression and other mood disorders.

MEET DR. RESHMI SARANGA

Leads the Ketamine Department


"I’m Dr. Reshmi Saranga, President and Owner of North Carolina Interventional Neurotherapy, and I can help you experience freedom from overwhelming emotions that make your life difficult to enjoy. My heart aches for what you go through, and I’ll show you the same compassionate and attention care I show my own family.

I’m board-certified in adult and geriatric psychiatry. After initial training in India, I completed a four year residency at University of Kansas Medical Center, then completed a fellowship in geriatric psychiatry at Duke University Medical Center.

I’ve served in the capacity of Chief Resident and on the Committee on Residency and Fellowship with the American Society of Clinical Psychopharmacology.

You need a psychiatrist who has the education, experiences, and expertise to provide the very best, up-to-date, and compassionate treatment. I chose this training path to provide the most insightful care possible for my patients. I also speak three languages to serve my patients more effectively: English, Hindi, and Telugu.

Empathetic and compassionate care are an integral part of our practice, and it’s extended not only to our family and friends but to our patients, most of all.

When I’m not seeing my patients, I’m usually at home with my husband and our children or playing tennis. I love listening to music while cooking the delicious Indian dishes my family loves. My husband, Dr. Vinay Saranga, and I savor family time, and promote the significance of family for anyone."

WHY OPEN THE NC INSTITUTE OF ADVANCED NEUROHEALTH?


As Dr. Saranga worked 10 years as a psychiatrist with his patients, he’s been distressed by the
percentage of them who did not respond to traditional antidepressants and anxiolytics. He
researched and scrutinized to find treatments that would bring relief to that segment of his
practice. His determination to find help for these patients eventually led to his opening:
