We are a group of experts - Medical Doctors, Nurse Practitioner, Psychologists, and Licensed Clinical Social Workers - that have the unified mission of getting you or your child well. We share a deep commitment to stabilizing and improving the lives of our patients. We believe that patients should get correctly diagnosed and treated so that they can live highly successful lives. We appreciate that change takes courage, especially when it means seeing a new doctor or therapist. We'd like to make your journey a comfortable one through warmth, compassion, and collaboration. 

 

Nicholas Pejic MD created our practice in 2008 by assembling the finest clinicians in New Orleans in an elegant Uptown setting. Dr. Pejic's father had trauma related symptoms due to surviving WWII, and he had two childhood friends complete suicide. These tragedies inspired him to create a psychiatry practice that could help patients before it was too late.  

​

Dr. Pejic is a Tulane University School of Medicine trained physician and former chief resident at LSU Department of Psychiatry.  He has Board Certification in Adult Psychiatry and Mind-Body Medicine and specializes in Treatment Resistant Depression, Addiction Medicine, Ketamine Therapy, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, and Genetic Testing. He is accompanied by Dr. Ashifur Rahman MD who heads our Child Psychiatry division,  Andrew Anson MD, a psychoanalyst and specialist in psychedelic medicine, and Kayla Seals NP, a psychiatric nurse practitioner who specializes in medication management and leads our Healthy Lifestyle Program. 

​

Our therapists are Psychologists and Social Workers who are trained in multiple types of therapy. Therefore, you have access to the right therapy all under one roof. 

​

As our patient, you can trust that we will take the time to understand your concerns, make the correct diagnosis, and provide you with effective care. We understand the importance of scheduling your appointments easily, seeing your doctor or therapist quickly, and managing your medication and refills efficiently. We are available to provide as much or as little attention as you need, and we care about getting it right.

​

So, if you want to feel empowered because you can finally control your mood and anxiety, excel in school and work, and have successful relationships, then schedule a free consultation today.
