Mental Wellness Check-Ins

Annual Wellness Visits | Preventive Health & Mental Wellness

A Yearly Check-In for Your Mental Health

A mental wellness check-in is a dedicated visit to look at how you are really doing — mood, stress, sleep, focus and energy — even when nothing feels wrong.

Life changes like a new job, a new baby, perimenopause or a demanding season at work can quietly shift how you feel. A yearly check-in gives you space to notice those shifts early and talk them through with a psychiatric clinician.

What Happens During a Check-In

A mental wellness check-in may include:

  • Brief screenings for mood, anxiety and attention
  • A conversation about stress, relationships and work
  • A review of sleep and energy
  • A review of any current psychiatric care
  • A look at how hormones, labs or lifestyle may be affecting mood
  • A simple plan for what, if anything, comes next

If something deserves a closer look, we will talk through options together, such as a full psychiatric evaluation or therapy. Physical health needs are referred to your primary care provider.

Frequently Asked Questions

A scheduled visit with a psychiatric clinician to review your mood, stress, sleep, focus and overall emotional well-being, whether or not you are struggling right now.

No. IPW Health focuses on mental health only. We do not provide physicals or primary care, and we are happy to coordinate with your primary care provider.

Brief screenings, a conversation about how life is going, and a review of sleep, stress and any current care. You leave with a clear next step, even if that is simply checking in again next year.

It is a good place to start. We look at sleep, stress, mood and hormonal factors, review relevant labs, and talk about whether a fuller evaluation would be useful.

Once a year works for many people. Some prefer more often during big life changes such as pregnancy, postpartum or perimenopause.
