Our Story & Mission

A Decade of Care, A Future of Connection

My name is Lauren Wright PA-C, and I am a Psychiatric Physician Assistant. I have 10 + years in providing psychiatric care. Hyacinth Mental Health was built with one concept in mind; a clinic centered on good service, where clients feel welcome and heard. I want every person who walks through our door to be treated as family.

I obtained my undergraduate degree from NC State with a B.S. in Biology and minor in Genetics. I obtained my masters in Physician Assistant Studies from East Carolina University. During my career as a PA, I have merged my background in general medicine with behavioral health to provide a holistic, science-backed approach to care. I further went on to be trained as a Neuropsychiatry specialist,

Having worked across the full spectrum of inpatient and outpatient psychiatry, I now focus on the complex relationship between brain function and behavior. I am committed to redefining the patient experience through superior customer service, and clear provider-patient communication.

I make my home in Raleigh, NC where I live with my husband, 2 children and 2 dogs. I enjoy gardening, flowers of course, needlepoint and walks.

“My mission is to help my clients move past compromises and 'common' solutions to find a mental health path that is as unique and resilient as a Hyacinth."
