About The Practice

Hi, I’m Joe Reis, a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with board certifications in both Psychiatry and Adult Medicine, plus additional training in integrative medicine. This mix of training lets me look at mental health from a whole-person perspective—blending traditional and holistic approaches to care.

I’ve been helping people with mental health concerns for over 30 years, working with a wide range of conditions like anxiety, depression, bipolar and other mood disorders, PTSD, and adult ADHD.

My approach is grounded in the latest evidence-based treatments but always tailored to fit your individual needs. Whether you're interested in medication management, lifestyle changes, integrative therapies, talk therapy—or a combination—we’ll build a care plan together that feels right for you.

I look forward to working with you!

Our Services

Ascend Psychiatric Services offers a comprehensive range of psychiatric services to address diverse mental health needs. Practice areas include:

Psychiatric Evaluations

Adaptogens

Medication Management

Our psychiatric evaluations are designed to assess the unique needs of each individual, leading to accurate diagnoses and tailored treatment recommendations to alleviate mental health symptoms and improve overall functioning.

Adaptogens are natural plant materials with a variety of pharmacologic compounds that can cultivate and enhance the human body’s innate ability to adapt to changing circumstances and maximize survival potential, particularly under conditions of stress.

Effective medication management is a crucial aspect of mental health care. Our practice prioritizes safe and evidence-based medication regimens, coupled with close monitoring and adjustments to optimize therapeutic outcomes.

Genetic Testing

Telepsychiatry Services

Genetic testing is specific to you as an individual. This testing provides valuable insights to help inform our treatment plan, potentially reducing medication trial and error, decreasing or eliminating potential side effects, and shortening your road to recovery.

We provide convenient and accessible telepsychiatry services, enabling patients to receive expert psychiatric care remotely, ensuring continuity of treatment and support regardless of location or mobility constraints.
