“This was our second telemedicine appointment with Dr. Karingular, and both experiences have been excellent. She was prompt and prepared, which I greatly appreciate as a busy parent. Dr. Karingular is knowledgeable, articulate, and patient, taking the time to truly understand my son’s background and needs. She communicates clearly, involves both parent and child in the discussion, and ensures everyone feels comfortable with the treatment plan. I highly recommend Dr. Karingular to anyone seeking a compassionate and thorough psychiatrist who provides exceptional care in the convenience of your own home.”

Getting to know Dr. Nidhi Karingula

At this time, I am accepting only self-pay patients. I do not provide controlled substances such as stimulants or benzodiazepines. Payment information is required to be completed prior to initial evaluation. I specialize in supporting children and adolescents on their mental health journeys. At the heart of my approach is the belief that recovery from mental illness is more than just overcoming challenges—it’s about helping your child build a fulfilling, meaningful life. Whether through therapy, medication, or a combination of both, we’ll work together to create a path that fosters long-term healing and growth. My ultimate goal is to help your child regain confidence, joy, and connection, both within themselves and in their community. Whether your child is struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, or behavioral issues, I offer comprehensive initial 75 min assessments and personalized treatment plans. I work closely with parents, schools, and other professionals to ensure the best possible care for your child's mental health and emotional well-being. You're not alone. I’m here to listen, support, and work together with you. Every child deserves to feel understood and empowered, and I’m committed to helping them build the tools they need to thrive. Please don’t hesitate to reach out—I’m here to help your family through this journey.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I am a CHOP/UPenn-trained double board-certified psychiatrist with specializations in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. I am licensed in the state of Georgia and have several years of experience in providing comprehensive telepsychiatry services.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I specialize in working with children with Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Autism, and Medication management. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into your concerns and collaborate to create a plan that works best for your child. I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help children and adolescents navigate their mental health challenges. Throughout treatment, I'll work with the child to identify negative thought patterns and teach strategies to challenge and change those thoughts, ultimately fostering more positive emotions and experiences.
