Balanced Mind Behavioral Health and Wellness
Our Sister Company - Insurance Accepted!!!
Psychiatric Treatment for Children, Adolescents, and Adults in Chester County
At Balanced Mind Behavioral Health and Wellness, we are dedicated to providing high-quality mental health care to children, adolescents, and adults in Chester County, Wilmington, and Northern Maryland. Founded by Dr. Mark Novitsky, our practice builds on the success of his renowned cash-only practice, NOVITSKY MD boutique mind doctors, by offering accessible, compassionate care that accepts insurance.
Dr. Mark Novitsky has spent his career championing mental health care for underserved populations. His journey began as a psychiatrist in the inner city, where he witnessed firsthand the challenges faced by families navigating mental health care with limited resources. These experiences shaped his commitment to creating a practice that balances cutting-edge treatments with an inclusive approach to care. While NOVITSKY MD remains a thriving practice for individuals seeking concierge-level care, Balanced Mind Behavioral Health and Wellness extends this vision to a greater number of patients by partnering with insurance providers.

Meet Dr. Holo
An Innovative Extension of Our Team
Balanced Mind Behavioral Health and Wellness is proud to introduce Dr. Holo, the first psychiatric AI, as a revolutionary extension of our care team. Dr. Holo is a highly secure platform designed to comply fully with HIPAA, HITECH, and other applicable regulations, utilizing advanced cybersecurity protocols to safeguard data and ensure confidentiality during all interactions.
Dr. Holo is FREE for all patients at Balanced Mind!
Patients will have the opportunity to interact with Dr. Holo 24/7 in an unlimited capacity on their smart phone, designed to enhance their treatment experience and provide unparalleled support between appointments. For example, during a session, our clinician may instruct Dr. Holo to reach out to a patient in the days following starting an antidepressant. Dr. Holo will follow the treatment plan and gather feedback about potential side effects, effectiveness, and overall progress. Based on this feedback and any questions that may arise, Dr. Holo can provide support and alert the provider if you need to be sooner.
Dr. Holo offers regular check-ins to ensure patients feel supported throughout their journey - information that will be collected and used to help your provider review progress - the days of having to regurgitate how things have been over the last three months between appointments is over! We already have the info when you come in from your intermittent reports and can get more of an appreciation of how your mood has been trending.
One of Dr. Holo’s most remarkable abilities is to process and analyze thousands of newly published medical articles and studies as they are released. This gives our team access to the most current and evidence-based information, far beyond what any single practitioner can keep up with. By integrating Dr. Holo into our practice, we empower our clinicians with cutting-edge insights to optimize treatment plans, ensuring patients receive the highest standard of care available.
