“We chose to partner with ARC Health given their commitment to a partnership approach. We consider ourselves to be innovators at Southeast Psych and this partnership allows us to continue running our practice and treating our patients as we always have, but with added support and resources that will help us positively impact the lives of more patients,” said Jonathan Feather, Psy. D, a founding partner.
Dr. Feather, Dave Verhaagen, PhD, APBB, and Lauren King, Psy. D, are managing partners of the thriving practice with 52 employees at their three locations. They offer individual and group therapy including aspergers/autism, eating disorders, mental health disorders, and family/parent counseling. Their “sweet spot” is working with teens and young adults, Dr. King said.
