As both a provider and the owner of SCP, Justin is revolutionizing the approach to mental health care with a focus on five essential pillars: quality, expertise, accountability, excellence, and availability.

Justin Ray brings a wealth of experience to his role, being specifically trained in Psychiatry and Board Certified by the American Nurses Credentialing Center.

With a combined 50 years of psychiatric and mental health experience among the team at SCP, Justin leads a practice that covers almost every type of venue or setting in the field. This extensive background allows him to offer comprehensive care that goes beyond the usual boundaries of psychiatric practice. Justin's approach emphasizes education, ensuring that clients are well-informed about their conditions and treatment options.

At the core of Justin's philosophy is the belief that psychiatric care should be client-centered and readily accessible. He has established a practice where clients can expect to have their calls returned promptly, receive direct access to their provider outside of appointments, and experience seamless collaboration between their psychiatrist and other members of their healthcare team. This level of availability and coordination is a hallmark of the care provided under Justin's leadership.

Justin Ray's commitment to excellence in psychiatric care is evident in every aspect of SCP's operations. From the quality of care that prioritizes understanding each client's unique concerns, to the accountability in achieving positive outcomes, Justin has created a practice that sets a new standard in mental health services.
