Free Mental Health Resources in NC

Navigating mental health care can feel overwhelming — especially if you are not sure whether what you are experiencing rises to the level that warrants professional care.

Our free mental health resources are designed to help North Carolina residents better understand common psychiatric conditions, recognize symptoms that benefit from professional evaluation, and take informed steps toward getting the help they need.

The free assessments and guides below are not diagnostic tools. They are evidence-informed educational resources developed to give you a clearer picture of your symptoms and how they compare to clinical thresholds.

If your results suggest you may benefit from professional evaluation, Pinnacle Behavioral Health offers same-day telepsychiatry appointments across all of North Carolina.

Pinnacle Behavioral Health serves patients throughout North Carolina via telepsychiatry — meaning you can access these resources and then book a psychiatric evaluation from your home, regardless of where in the state you live.

We accept most major insurance plans including NC Medicaid, TRICARE East, Blue Cross NC, Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, and we offer transparent self-pay pricing for patients without insurance.

Guides, Crisis Lines, and Support Tools

ADHD Assessment & Guide

Adult ADHD is significantly underdiagnosed, particularly in women and high achievers. Our free ADHD self-assessment covers inattentive, hyperactive, and combined presentations.

The accompanying treatment guide explains what a psychiatric ADHD evaluation involves and what treatment options are available.

Anxiety Management Guide

Anxiety is the most common mental health condition in the United States, but it exists on a spectrum from normal worry to clinically significant disorder. Our anxiety guide helps you understand where your symptoms fall and what treatment approaches are most effective.

Depression Resource Guide

Depression is more than sadness — it is a complex condition that affects mood, energy, concentration, sleep, appetite, and motivation. Our depression resource explains the different types of depressive disorders and how psychiatric treatment, including medication management, can help.

When to See a Psychiatrist

Many people are unsure whether their symptoms warrant seeing a psychiatrist versus a therapist or their primary care doctor. A psychiatrist (or psychiatric nurse practitioner) is indicated when medication evaluation or complex diagnostic assessment is needed.
