Timely Access to care —without long waits or delays.

Mental Health Care—Without the Wait, the Rush, or the Runaround

Private, virtual psychiatry for men and women in Tennessee who feel like they’re barely holding it together. You deserve more than a rushed appointment and a prescription.

Hello I’m Erica Winter, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC, Founder of Uplift Psychiatry, PLLC.

I started Uplift because I kept seeing the same problem: people who were clearly struggling couldn’t get in to be seen for weeks — sometimes months. And when they finally did, appointments felt rushed, impersonal, and disconnected from their real lives.

That’s not the kind of care I wanted to provide.

Uplift was built around a simple idea: you should be able to access high-quality psychiatric care quickly, privately, and on your terms — without fighting insurance systems or sitting on a waitlist.
