Concierge Medicine

What Is Concierge Medicine and Mental Health?

Haute MD Editorial Team

Mental health in concierge medicine refers to the integration of psychological wellbeing into primary care — including screening, lifestyle interventions, basic medication management when appropriate, and coordinated referral to psychiatry and therapy.

What it typically includes

Routine depression and anxiety screening, sleep and stress evaluation, lifestyle interventions (exercise, sleep, nutrition), prescription management for uncomplicated cases, and care coordination with psychiatry and psychotherapy.

Why concierge structure matters

Mental health concerns often surface during longer, less rushed visits. Concierge structure creates the trust and continuity that makes meaningful conversations possible.

What to evaluate

Comfort discussing mental health, referral relationships with psychiatry and therapy, and whether the practice integrates psychiatric medication management when appropriate.
