A private telehealth practice serving patients across Georgia. Comprehensive evaluation, thoughtful medication management, and close coordination with the clinicians already supporting you.
Every patient begins with a full diagnostic evaluation. Treatment follows from what we find — not from a template.
Diagnostic evaluation and family-centered treatment for school-age children and teens, with real coordination between home, school, and existing providers.
Evaluation and ongoing medication management for adults, including those navigating major life transitions or long-standing untreated symptoms.
Expert psychiatric management of complex eating disorders, integrated with the dietitians, therapists, and medical providers on the treatment team.
Dr. Jacob is a dual board-certified child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist with more than twenty years of clinical experience. She served as an Assistant Professor at Emory University and as a consultation-liaison psychiatrist at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, caring for medically complex patients alongside multidisciplinary teams.
Her clinical work is grounded in an integrative model: medication is used deliberately and monitored closely, as one part of a plan that includes therapy, family involvement, and coordination with the patient's broader care team.
Good psychiatric care requires more than a prescription. It requires understanding the whole patient — the family, the school, the medical history, the life around the symptoms. Maryann Priya Jacob, MD

Payment is due at the time of service, and fees are published here in full — so there are no surprises at any point in your care.
