Meet Your Doctor |
|
Dr. Apraku is a medical doctor specialized in psychiatry. Certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology, Dr. Apraku is a passionate advocate for mental health.
One unfortunate barrier to better mental health is that those seeking treatment can feel stigmatized. Dr. Apraku believes that tele-psychiatry can help to reduce barriers to mental health services by making treatment more private and convenient. |
Why Tele-Psychiatry?
|
Apraku Psychiatry is where technology meets mental health: all appointments take place by secure video.
We believe that technology enhances the practice of psychiatry by providing easy access to care at a time and location that's convenient to you. |
accessibleAccessing mental health care should be as easy as calling an Uber or watching Netflix. With us, it is. |
flexibleWe don't believe in 9-to-5. Appointments are available outside of standard work hours and on weekends. |
bespoke Enjoy direct access: as well as video chats, correspond with your provider by secure message. |
Multi-State Coverage
|
With traditional brick-and-mortar practices, moving can mean having to find a new psychiatrist. Given the national shortage of psychiatrists, that's often very difficult. Even if you find one, care can be disrupted.
With us, moving within state makes no difference. Likewise, nothing changes if you're heading to one of our other practice states. As long as you're located in one of our practice states during each appointment, we're good to go. |

Long-Term Care
|
Psychiatry is an art as well as a science. To be effective, it requires a relationship between patient and provider founded on trust and mutual understanding. The goal of Apraku Psychiatry is to build long-lasting patient-provider relationships to get your mental health as good as it can be.
Patient education is an integral part of the healing process. Knowledge about what ails you is often the first step to overcoming it. In 75-minute initial and 30-minute follow-up appointments, we take the time to guide you through the science underlying your condition. Relationships mean so much to us that we give a "relocation promise" to established patients. If you're moving out of state, we'll try our best to continue treatment by obtaining a license to practice in the state to which you're moving (if we don't have one already). And if that doesn't work out we'll work with your new psychiatrist to ensure continuity of care. |

Our PhilosophyThe human brain is the most complex object in the universe. It is extraordinarily robust, but also fragile.
The promise of psychiatry is that fragility can be managed. With treatment, patients can lead fulfilling lives. This idea is symbolized in our logo. It shows that an imperfect circle can be beautiful. Apraku Psychiatry does not aim for a perfect circle, but a beautiful one. |
