Dr. Barry Weed, M.D., helps patients in North Carolina find stability and relief through compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care. He provides medication management tailored to each individual’s needs, supporting teens, young adults, adults, and seniors as they navigate life’s challenges. With more than two decades of experience, he is known for guiding patients through both routine care and complex conditions with a steady, thoughtful approach.

In his practice at LifeStance Health, Dr. Weed frequently works with patients experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder. He also has extensive experience in addressing co-occurring conditions and providing care for members of the LGBTQ+ community, individuals with developmental disabilities, and military veterans. In addition to his core specialties, he offers treatment for a wide range of other mental health concerns, ensuring patients have access to comprehensive psychiatric support in North Carolina. Outside of his clinical work, Dr. Weed is an active member of his community. He has a passion for theater, enjoys coaching, and spends time sailing.

Dr Weed is very thorough and spends time looking at prescriptions total effects, not just those he’s prescribing. A very involved physician and I appreciate his expertise. So far he ordered EKG, this came back normal. He ordered an at home sleep study which revealed that I was experiencing many interruptions while sleeping and I should get a sleep PAD Setup. I am grateful for his above and beyond due diligence.

Dr. Weed takes time to hear you out & adjust your medication if needed/when not effective. It’s hard for me to feel comfortable & heard when finding a Dr. and I’ve not felt that way with him. I’ve been seeing Dr Weed for about 4-5 months now and I always leave with a game plan and feeling optimistic!
