Services

I provide individualized psychiatric care for adults (18+) looking for a holistic, trauma-informed provider/prescriber.  I am familiar with treating a wide range of psychiatric issues such as clinical depression, stress-related disorders, anxiety, ADHD, and bipolar disorder. If your condition is acute or unstable, you may benefit from treatment with an MD psychiatrist or treatment services from a higher level of care.

The psychiatric and behavioral health services I offer include:

• psychiatric medication and treatment evaluations

• psychiatric medication management

• medication and diagnostic consults or second opinions, by referral

• psycho-education on both medication and non-medication treatment options

• brief supportive and interpersonal psychotherapy with each visit, for established med management patients

Receiving compassionate and quality psychiatric care in a safe and therapeutic space can help ground your recovery and healing process.

Please note that I do not provide:

• neuropsychological testing

• treatment services to children or adolescents under age 18

• any legal advice or legal consultation

• any legal forms to endorse an emotional support animal or service animal

• any court-mandated psychiatric evaluations or forensic reports on your mental status or return to work evaluations

• any FMLA, short-term or long-term disability assessments or endorsements, on a first visit or with new patients

WARNING:  If you are on a controlled substance, there is no guarantee that I will prescribe, continue or refill any of your meds on a first visit. I would need a full assessment, comprehensive history/interview, review of your past records from prior prescribers and medical providers, and then discussing together my recommendations and a safety-focused treatment plan.   

My patients have told me over the past ten years that I am an open-minded and a caring listener. I explore “small picture” and “big picture” lenses to the treatment of your condition.  I have a humanistic and eclectic approach, that values fundamental aspects of CBT, DBT and mindfulness meditation.

We collaborate on a treatment plan to better understand and manage your symptoms. This includes but is not exclusive to medication support and medication management. Additionally, I encourage healthy lifestyle changes, psychotherapy, regular physical activity, healthy eating, local support groups, and building a practice of non-judgmental and mindful coping skills.
