Carolina Partners of Chapel Hill

I sought out Carolina Partners after having a different mental health practice in the area reschedule my appointment 4 times! I’m really glad I did.
I called the intake line for CP and was set up with an appointment with Paula Sumner about 2 – 3 weeks later.
Paula is fantastic. Her style is personable and real — she’s not afraid to crack a joke and «gets» sarcasm so you can really be yourself around her. This is a rare quality in my experience!
She approaches mental health as a collaborative process with her patients, taking time finding the right solution for each symptom/​issue, rather than just prescribing whatever knock-‘em-out pill is being pushed by the pharma reps this year. She has a wide scope of training and expertise which includes overall physical health, mental health, and alternative therapies as well.
Over several months, Paula and I have found the right fit of meds/​holistic therapies/​lifestyle changes to truly improve my quality of life… something I have never been able to achieve through a traditional psychiatrist.
If you are interested in having a true partner in mental health and well-​being, Paula Sumner is a wonderful one.
