Rodney Wike

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Lenoir, NC


Ever feel like your brain just won't cooperate? You know what you need to do, but you can't make yourself do it. You lose things, forget things, start projects you never finish — and you've probably been told to just try harder.

That gets old.

I'm Rodney. I'm a board-certified PMHNP and I work exclusively with adults who think they might have ADHD — or who already know they do and need a provider who actually gets it. ADHD is all I do, which means I'm not guessing.

I'll be straight with you: I talk to my patients like people, not cases. I want to know what your life actually looks like — your job, your relationships, what's driving you crazy — because that's how we figure out what's going to help.

I'm a veteran, and if that's part of your story too, you'll feel that in how I communicate. Direct, no fluff, no runaround.

I see adults across all of North Carolina via telehealth, seven days a week. If this sounds like what you've been looking for, just reach out.

Happy patient looking away

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 Psychiatrist in Sanford

Finding psychiatrists in Sanford starts with understanding the type of care you want. Psychiatrists can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication as part of care. Psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can also diagnose and prescribe. Therapists focus on talk therapy and may work with you on concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, and relationship stress. Some people start with a therapist, some start with a prescriber, and some work with both. Reading each psychiatrist’s listed specialties can help you find someone whose training matches your needs.

In a smaller city like Sanford, local appointment options may be more limited than in larger North Carolina markets. Virtual psychiatry can expand your search while still letting you choose a psychiatrist licensed in your state. Psychiatric appointments for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also provide therapy. As you compare options, look at appointment availability, whether the psychiatrist is accepting new patients, and how their bio describes communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.

Psychiatric care in Sanford 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 you book. Headway lets you enter your insurance details, see psychiatrists who match your plan, review estimated costs upfront, and book directly when you’re ready. Every psychiatrist listed is accepting new patients, making it easier to find care that fits your needs, schedule, and coverage.

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.
