About
The Alchemy Institute is here to help you or your loved ones with mental health care. We offer virtual psychiatric services across North Carolina, so you can get the support you need from home. We work with adults and children (ages 6 and up) who are dealing with different mental health challenges.
Our approach mixes medical expertise with practical, holistic care so you get the right tools and treatments for real life. We start with a thorough assessment so your story gets time and attention. We provide medication management and supportive therapy during follow-up visits.
We also offer ADHD evaluation and diagnosis. We offer functional and holistic psychiatry recommendations, lab testing, and pharmacogenetic testing. This testing helps us choose safer and more effective medicines.

Your mind is the quiet fire that warms every part of your life. It shapes how you move through stress, how you build relationships, and how you choose your next steps. Just as the body needs rest and nourishment, the mind needs care, attention, and moments of stillness.
When your inner world is supported, you meet challenges with steadier feet. You speak with more compassion, see with greater clarity, and rediscover joy in small moments: the morning light, a shared laugh, the calm between thoughts.
​
Mental health isn’t a measure of weakness or strength, it’s simply part of being human. With patience and consistency, it grows like a well-tended plant: rooted, resilient, and alive.
​
In therapy and psychiatry, this nurturing becomes a shared journey. Whether you’re seeking support for anxiety, depression, ADHD management, or a deeper sense of balance, caring for your emotional well-being is one of the strongest steps you can take. Prioritizing your mental health isn’t just self-care. it’s self-strengthening.

Tabitha is an amazing psychiatrist! I’ve been working with her for almost two years (January). She has been so helpful in keeping me where I need to be medicine wise. She also really helps in understanding what’s going on in my life and is really encouraging and personable. Even without adding extra meds or changing dosages, she is always interested in what’s going on in my life. I absolutely love her and unless something happens where I can’t see her anymore, I will be staying with her indefinitely! Absolutely recommends her to anyone and definitely is 5 stars all around!!

I love the philosophy of this practice. I'm so fortunate to have found a provider that has more than just a single approach to treatment.

Does a great job at making you feel comfortable while discussing difficult topics and symptoms. I feel like she always has my best interest in mind and genuinely wants to help me improve/manage my mental health and disorders. I would definitely recommend trying the Alchemy Institute! 10/10

The reason I became a psychiatric provider isn't just because I studied or found the brain fascinating. It’s because I’ve lived through the pain, the confusion, and the silence that so often surround mental health and addiction.​
​
I grew up witnessing the struggles of addiction and mental illness in my own family. My teenage years were difficult, filled with my own battles and questions I didn’t always have answers for. My father lost his life to an overdose. My brother, who I loved deeply, died by suicide. These losses shaped me profoundly, they left scars, yes, but also a burning drive to understand, to heal, and to help others find a way through.
​
I know what it's like to feel broken, to feel helpless, and to feel like no one understands. And that’s exactly why I sit across from you, not to judge, not to fix you, but to walk with you. To let you know that you are not alone. That your story matters. That healing is possible, even when it doesn't feel that way.
​
This work is personal to me. Every person I meet reminds me why I chose this path, to honor those I’ve lost, to support those who are still here, and to be the kind of person I wish my family had.
