Mental Health Care in New Jersey & Pennsylvania That Makes You Feel Heard
Most patients across New Jersey and Pennsylvania can be seen within 24 hours, rather than waiting the weeks that first psychiatric appointments usually take. Call 609-323-5252, and one conversation can help you discuss your symptoms, understand your treatment options, and determine appropriate next steps.
Who We Are
Convenient and Affordable Mental Health Clinics
We treat patients of all ages, including teens, children, adolescents, adults, and seniors. Our multidisciplinary team combines clinical expertise with empathy to deliver trusted mental health services. We help patients manage symptoms, improve daily functioning, and restore emotional stability.
Because psychiatry, psychology, and therapy all fall under one practice, your prescriber and your therapist work from the same record rather than guessing at each other’s plan. That coordination is what keeps treatment moving forward rather than restarting at every appointment.
- Multidisciplinary team of licensed professionals
- Confidential and HIPAA-compliant services
- Treatment for all stages of development
- Safe electronic records and telehealth access

Telepsychiatry

Mental Health Conditions We Treat
The outpatient mental health services of CPG include teletherapy, telepsychiatry, and medication management. We help manage and treat a wide range of conditions and disorders.
Accurate diagnosis is where good treatment begins, since conditions like bipolar disorder and ADHD are frequently mistaken for depression or anxiety alone, which changes the right course entirely. Our evaluations follow DSM-5 criteria supported by validated screening measures rather than a first impression.

Anxiety & Panic Disorders

OCD

PTSD & Trauma
Bipolar Disorder

We Work With All Insurance Companies
Behavioral health benefits often differ from medical benefits and vary by plan, by employer, and by state. Our team verifies your specific coverage and copay before your first visit rather than leaving you to discover it at the desk, and self-pay rates are available if you prefer to keep insurance out of your treatment entirely.
What Our Patients Say About Us
We’re humbled to say so many individuals/communities have put their trust in us. Here are some of their words:
Most people who finally book tell us afterward that they wish they had done it sooner. These are their experiences in their own words, unedited.

Jerry from the billing department, is always helpful and so kindPosted on Google esther fitzTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. For 1 solid year, I tried to get an insurance card with my doctor's name to change him to my primary care doctor. I called wellcare, they said they will take care of it. I then waited 15 days to receive the mail. When I finally got the mail, it had the wrong doctor as my primary care on the card. I called wellcare again, found out it wasn't changed. They said they were sorry and said they would change it. The same outcome repeated, another card with the wrong doctor. After going to the doctor for an appointment, the receptionist told me I had to change my doctor's name with wellcare or the next time I came to this doctor I would have to pay. I then called wellcare for the third time, they apologized and said they would change it once again. They then sent another card with again the wrong doctor. I then called Jerry, he said he would take care of everything. Jerry, along with myself called wellcare and took care of everything and got it fixed. Finally, after 1 year and 3 tries, the problem was solved, thanks to Jerry, what an amazing job! I appreciate him for fixing this issue. He is the best! It wouldn't have been solved without him. Thank you again!Posted on Google Ifat CheemaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience with Capital Psychiatry, especially with Jerry from billing. He was extremely helpful, patient, and made the billing process smooth and stress-free. It’s rare to encounter someone so attentive and professional, and his assistance really stood out. Highly recommend their services!Posted on Google Beba MarieTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very understandable and very helpful. Thank you Jerry
Start with a call. You are not expected to diagnose yourself or pick the right service before anyone has spoken with you. Tell our team what has been happening and we match you with the right clinician, whether that is a psychiatrist, a nurse practitioner, a psychologist, or a therapist. Same-day or next-day appointments may be available depending on provider schedules, visit type, location, and clinical need. Call 609-323-5252.
They overlap by design, and most patients use more than one. Psychiatric services cover diagnosis, prescribing, and medication management. Psychological services deliver structured talk therapies such as CBT, DBT, ERP, and IPT. Behavioral health sits across both, focused on daily functioning at home, school, and work. Your evaluation determines the combination, so you do not need to choose at booking.
Anxiety and panic, depression, ADHD, OCD, ODD, PTSD and trauma, bipolar disorder, mood disorders, eating disorders, schizophrenia, and substance use, including cases where several occur together. We also see patients whose difficulties carry no clean label, such as grief, burnout, and persistent sleep problems. Those are legitimate reasons to seek care.
Our team confirms your insurance and copay before the visit, then matches you with a clinician. Your first appointment is an evaluation, and you leave knowing what was found, what is recommended, and when you will be seen again. Prescriptions go to your pharmacy the same day, and follow-up is scheduled before you go.
Yes, in clinic and online. Our New Jersey offices are in Hamilton Township, Newark, Robbinsville, South Plainfield, Delran, and Cinnaminson. In Pennsylvania we see patients in Morrisville, serving Bucks County and the greater Philadelphia region. Telepsychiatry covers both states in full, including areas with no clinic nearby.
For most patients, yes, from booking through evaluation, therapy, and prescriptions sent electronically to your pharmacy. Some situations still need an exam room, including certain controlled medications and cases with safety concerns. Your clinician will say so directly rather than stretching a virtual visit past what it can do well.
Yes. Our providers page lists every clinician with their credentials and focus areas, and you can request someone specific when you call. If the fit turns out to be wrong after a few appointments, tell us and we will rematch you without any awkwardness.
Yes, and refills happen through short scheduled follow-ups rather than automatically, because doses and side effects deserve a conversation rather than a silent renewal. Most follow-ups can be done by telehealth. If a prescription is close to running out and you have no appointment booked, call us promptly about bridging options.
Before your first appointment, not after. We verify your specific benefits, copay, and deductible during the booking call, since behavioral health coverage varies by plan, employer, and state. Self-pay rates are quoted up front if you are uninsured or prefer to keep insurance out of your treatment.
Yes, across every service line. For teens, we balance the privacy that makes them willing to talk with the information parents need to support the plan at home. For older adults, care covers grief, isolation, memory concerns, and how psychiatric medications interact with everything else being taken.
Your care is protected under HIPAA and state privacy law. Nothing is released to your employer, licensing board, or family without your written authorization, aside from narrow legal exceptions involving imminent risk of serious harm. Self-pay removes insurance from the process entirely if that matters to you.
Yes. Tell us at booking and we send the records release request for you. Bring what you have, including previous diagnoses and medications you have tried. If you have been out of treatment for years with no records at all, that is a normal starting point.
Yes. Primary care providers, pediatricians, therapists, hospitals, and schools refer to us regularly, and our referral portal lets professionals send patients directly. With consent, we coordinate with the referring provider so treatment stays connected rather than parallel.
If you are in immediate danger or having thoughts of harming yourself, call or text 988 for the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, or call 911. For urgent situations that are not life-threatening, such as a medication reaction or a prescription running out, call 609-323-5252 and we will find the fastest safe option
