How Care Is Delivered

Telehealth psychiatry — available anywhere in California.

All visits are conducted by secure HIPAA-compliant video. There is no commute, no waiting room, and no need to take time away from work for travel. You will need a smartphone, tablet, or computer with a camera, and a private space for your appointment.

You must be physically located in California at the time of your visit. Most patients find that telehealth works well for both initial evaluations and ongoing follow-up appointments. Scheduling is flexible as your circumstances change.

One Provider, Continuity of Care

You will see Dr. Casilang at every appointment. Continuity is part of how this practice is designed.

Who This Is For

Adults whose prior psychiatric treatment hasn't fully worked

This practice is built for a specific kind of patient. Many California patients who schedule here have been in psychiatric treatment for months or years without reaching a stable, satisfying outcome. They have tried multiple medications without a clear explanation of the rationale. They have received different diagnoses from different providers. Or they simply want to understand what they are taking — and why — before continuing.

The MindCounsel offers the kind of careful, unhurried evaluation that is difficult to find in high-volume outpatient settings. The initial visit is 60 minutes. Prior records are welcome and reviewed carefully before any recommendations are made.

What to Expect

Your first appointment

The initial evaluation is 60 minutes. It includes a thorough review of your psychiatric and medical history, prior diagnoses and how they were determined, a structured medication history, and a review of prior records when you provide them. Treatment decisions are made collaboratively, based on a full understanding of your history.
