Dr. Carlos Barrios, MD

Psychiatrist
IL
As a board-certified child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist with over 20 years of experience, I provide telepsychiatry built around a simple goal: healing minds while minimizing medication. My practice is grounded in metabolic and functional psychiatry — I treat psychiatric symptoms as signals of underlying imbalances in sleep, nutrition, inflammation, and physiology, not just as problems to be medicated away. I work with children, teens, and adults navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar spectrum conditions, PTSD, and autism-related challenges. Every evaluation is comprehensive and personalized, integrating evidence-based treatment with practical lifestyle and nutritional strategies designed to restore function and reduce reliance on medication wherever it is safe to do so. Education is at the heart of how I practice. Patients and families make the best decisions when they understand the reasoning behind a treatment plan, so I take the time to explain the "why" and partner with you throughout care. I offer bilingual care in English and Spanish, with telehealth availability across California, Washington, Arizona, Illinois, and South Carolina. If you are looking for a thoughtful, root-cause approach to your child's mental health — or your own — I would be glad to help you take the next step toward lasting well-being.

It’s common for mental health providers to be out-of-network. Many insurance plans offer out-of-network coverage, so you may get partially reimbursed. Learn more

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider's self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan's benefits.
