About Kopas Mental Health

Kopas Mental Health is an outpatient psychiatric practice in Colorado Springs, Colorado, offering medication management alongside talk therapy. They were started in response to common frustrations with psychiatric care, such as months-long waits, rushed appointments, and prescriptions handed out without real listening. Their approach treats medication as a useful tool rather than the whole answer, while staying with options backed by research. They screen for and treat mood disorders, anxiety, post-traumatic conditions, and attention disorders, and their nurse practitioner also works with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia-type conditions.

Care begins with a one-hour psychiatric evaluation, and the final part of that visit is spent reviewing findings and walking through the pros and cons of each evidence-based option so you can choose what fits. Plans may include talk therapy, lifestyle changes, lab work or other testing, and sometimes prescription medication. Follow-up visits usually run 20 to 30 minutes and can be scheduled anywhere from weekly to yearly, and you can message your provider between appointments when something can’t wait. Their stated goal is to restore as much day-to-day function as possible with the least amount of treatment or medication, and appointments can be booked online.
