Psychological Services – Outpatient

Overview

Oaklawn is committed to providing compassionate, comprehensive mental health care for our community. Our team of experienced psychiatrists, nurse practitioners, psychologists, and therapists deliver care for patients of all ages, from children to older adults.

Outpatient psychological services are designed to help individuals manage a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, mood disorders, trauma, ADHD, and more. Our clinicians provide evaluations, medication management, and therapy in a supportive environment. Initial appointments are conducted in person. Telehealth visits may be available for follow-up appointments, depending on the visit type.

Traditionally, Oaklawn’s outpatient behavioral health services have been offered solely at our Bear Creek campus in Marshall. To expand access and reduce barriers to care, we now also provide psychiatric medication management services directly within several Oaklawn primary care offices. This integrated approach allows patients to receive care in a familiar setting, reduces stigma, and helps ensure timely, coordinated treatment alongside their primary care.

Integrated Primary Care Locations

In addition to our Bear Creek campus, psychiatric medication management services are now available at:

These services are currently provided by Suzanne Kirk, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC, who brings more than 30 years of experience in family and psychiatric care, including a decade with Oaklawn’s inpatient psychiatric unit. She now focuses on outpatient mental health medication management for adults, working closely with primary care providers to support patients in their treatment.

Inpatient Services

For those requiring a higher level of care, Oaklawn also operates a 17-bed inpatient psychiatric unit at our main hospital campus in Marshall. Our inpatient team provides short-term, intensive treatment to help stabilize acute psychiatric conditions in a safe and supportive environment.
