About Us 

Allied Psychophysiology - Allied Psych is a private medical practice located in Wilmington, NC that specializes in assessment and treatment of Attention Deficit Disorder (AD/HD), anxiety (including panic and PTSD), stress-related medical conditions, and select other disorders.   It was founded in 2006 by Lee Porter, APRN-NP, CS, a nurse practitioner and clinical specialist in psychiatry, dual-licensed in the state of NC with two ANCC and two BCIA national board certifications.  

 

Allied Psych integrates state-of-the-art clinical neuroscience with a care-oriented advanced practice nursing approach.   The practice provides psychological and medical support for clients with select chronic medical conditions with a neurological component. 

 

A growing body of evidence supports use of physiological biomarkers and imaging technologies such as QEEG, SPECT and fMRI to guide effective, patient-centered treatment.  Allied Psych uses the QEEG as a clinical tool to assist in guiding treatment.  Allied Psych also uses heart rate variability and capnometry as biomarkers of nervous system function.

 

Allied Psych accepts self-referred adult clients (18+) as well as referrals from primary care and specialty practices.  Allied Psych selectively treats clients under age 18 on a professional referral basis only - please contact the practice for details. The practice provides collaborative care with many area medical practices.
