Tele-health only. Have you ever felt rushed through a mental health med visit? Have you ever felt like "just" a diagnosis or collection of symptoms? You are more than that: You are a complex and whole human being and you have a right to be seen. You also have a right to mental wellbeing - the ability to experience and move through all normal human emotions (happiness, anger, sadness, anxiety) with the energy and motivation to do the things you need and want to do.

Medications are often necessary to treat psychiatric illnesses. Our prescribers take care to recommend psychiatric medications and dosages that are most effective at specifically targeting the patient's symptoms, without over-medicating patients. Whether we are starting new medications or streamlining a patient's current medications, our goal is to provide successful management of psychiatric symptoms with minimal side effects. We believe that providing psychiatric care is about treating the whole patient. We consider other medical conditions that may play a role in a person's mental health, and we encourage behavioral and cognitive skills to improve overall mental health.
