If you've been putting off mental health care because of a busy schedule, mobility challenges, or simply the thought of a 20-minute drive to Burtonsville — you're not alone. Dr. Gloria Fosu provides expert telehealth psychiatry in Silver Spring through secure video appointments, so you can get the care you need without the commute. She offers comprehensive evaluations, medication management, and therapy — all from the comfort of your home. No traffic on New Hampshire Avenue. No parking stress. No waiting room. Just expert care from your couch. Dr. Fosu is a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with a Doctor of Nursing Practice degree, and has advanced training in virtual mental health care.

Care That Comes to You

For Silver Spring residents, the idea of a 20-minute drive to Burtonsville can be a real barrier — especially when you're already dealing with mental health challenges. That's why we've built our practice around virtual care that meets you where you are. Here's how we make psychiatric care more accessible, flexible, and human.

💻

No Commute, No Waiting Room

With telehealth, you don't have to navigate New Hampshire Avenue traffic or find parking in Burtonsville. You don't have to sit in a waiting room when you're already feeling anxious or overwhelmed. You just click a secure link from your phone, tablet, or computer — and you're connected to Dr. Fosu. Same expert care, zero commute.

For Silver Spring residents, this means you can get psychiatric care without rearranging your entire day. Same-week appointments are often available, so you don't have to wait weeks to get started. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, ADHD, or other concerns, help is just a click away.

🧠

Full-Service Care — All Remote

Through secure video, Dr. Fosu provides the full range of psychiatric services — including comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, therapy, and follow-up care. She treats a wide range of conditions: anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, trauma, and more. Your treatment plan is personalized to your needs, and we adjust it as you progress — all without you leaving your home.

Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, or ADHD, telehealth brings expert care to your home — no traffic, no waiting room, no commute. Just the support you need, when you need it.

Visiting Our Burtonsville Office

While we're primarily a telehealth practice, we understand that some people prefer face-to-face care. Our Burtonsville office is about a 20-minute drive from Silver Spring via New Hampshire Avenue or Route 29. Free parking is available, and our space is designed to feel safe and welcoming — not clinical or cold.

📍

Our Burtonsville Clinic

4009 Sandy Spring Road #104, Burtonsville, MD 20866

Just off Route 29, near the Burtonsville Crossing shopping center and Ice Rink Drive. Free parking is available right outside the building — no circling for parking, no long walks through a busy lot. Our clinic is designed to feel calm and private, a space where you can talk openly without distractions. Get directions on Google Maps.

📋

What to Bring

Please bring your insurance card, a valid ID, and a list of any current medications. If you're a new patient, you'll receive forms to complete before your visit. Arrive a few minutes early to check in and get settled. If you're used to the convenience of telehealth, we understand that an in-person visit might feel different — but we're here to make it as comfortable and supportive as possible.

🤝

Why Choose In-Person?

Some people prefer in-person care for the connection, the privacy, or simply to get out of the house. We offer both options because we believe you should have a choice. If you decide that the 20-minute drive from Silver Spring is too much on a given day, you can always switch to telehealth. The choice is yours, and we're here to support whatever works best for you.

For questions about insurance or to verify your coverage, call us at (240) 360-7308. Our team is happy to help you understand your benefits.
