What is Concierge Psychiatry?

Concierge psychiatry is a membership-based model of physician-led psychiatric care that emphasizes personalized, evidence-based treatment plans that adapts to your life, with exceptional availability and continuity of care. Patients receive direct care from a board-certified psychiatrist with fewer barriers, greater flexibility, minimal wait times, and extraordinary accessibility for a simple, affordable membership rate. By removing fee-for-service billing, hidden fees, and third-party interference from insurance companies or commercial entities, we are able to provide truly patient-centered care. Shine Concierge Psychiatry was designed to restore the therapeutic relationship at the center of psychiatric care, where quality, trust, and access are paramount.

Concierge Psychiatry vs Traditional Psychiatry vs Pay-Per-Service

Concierge psychiatry offers a fundamentally different care experience than traditional insurance-based psychiatric practices and pay-per-service. Shine concierge psychiatry prioritizes clinical excellence over volume-driven care. Dr. Shin intentionally limits the size of her patient panel, allowing for the highest quality of care, increased availability, and a deeper therapeutic partnership. Shine concierge care supports deeper clinical insight and thoughtful decision-making, leading to meaningful progress over time and greater peace of mind.

Who is Concierge Psychiatry Best Suited For?

At Shine Psychiatry, this refined approach to mental health care is designed for individuals who value time, access, discretion, higher level of psychiatric care, and a deeper therapeutic partnership with their board-certified psychiatrist.

Shine Psychiatry emphasizes long-term wellness rather than episodic symptom management. Our goal is for every patient to feel known, supported, and cared for.
