Hi there, I’m Nimrode Aridou. After seven intense years as an emergency room psychiatric nurse, I built this practice to provide fast, judgment-free mental healthcare that truly fits your busy life. I specialize in helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, and clear ADHD testing—and starting at the end of November 2026, I am thrilled to expand our services to offer Spravato (esketamine) treatments right here in our office for treatment-resistant depression. You don't need to have everything figured out before we talk; just show up exactly as you are, and let’s work together to get you feeling like yourself again!

Frequently asked questions
Find the right psychiatrist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Hickory
Finding psychiatrists in Hickory starts with understanding the type of care you want to book. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists focus on talk therapy. Medication management can include an evaluation, follow-up visits, and adjustments guided by your prescriber. People often look for psychiatric care for concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or OCD. As you compare options, look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties and experience match what you want support with.
In a smaller city like Hickory, local psychiatry options may be more limited than in larger North Carolina metros. Virtual appointments can expand your search while still helping you find care that fits your schedule. Psychiatry visits for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber, depending on their needs. Before booking, read each psychiatrist’s bio to understand their approach, availability, session structure, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Psychiatric care in Hickory can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists who take your insurance, are accepting new patients, and offer appointment times that match your preferences. You can review bios, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose in-person or virtual care when you are ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
