Chronic Illness Psychiatrists in 76092

I am happy to announce the opening of my practice in Southlake, Texas. I am a board certified adult psychiatrist and offer medication management in combination with psychotherapy or alone. If you are already working with a therapist I will communicate closely with them regarding your care. I completed medical school and residency training at the Johns Hopkins school of Medicine and have had extensive experience working with patients age 13 and up. I do not believe in the '15 minute med check', rather I enjoy working with a small number of patients and developing meaningful relatioships with them.

As a psychiatrist, I endeavor to facilitate the growth of individual mental, emotional, and spiritual capacities, whether by optimizing effective medication for managing mood and anxiety symptoms or encouraging engagement in purposeful psychotherapy (or both). Practicing psychiatry over the past 14 years has guided me toward a realization that humanity is beautiful and that I am priviledged to have the opportunity to develop meaningful patient relationships, which, through the passage of time along with individual effort, promote personal acceptance, advancement, contentment, and peace.

Accepting new clients all across Texas. Appointments within 1-2 days. Weekend appointments available. Are you having a difficult time coping with stress? When was the last time you were happy and hopeful.? I am here to help. Just as every human being is created uniquely, every life situation and stressor is distinctive. Your stressors, situations, and trauma are unlike anyone else’s. You deserve a provider who is receptive and non judgmental to his/her approach in order to help and guide you in your most challenging times.

Life can certainly bring unexpected challenges and dilemmas. People may encounter challenges around relationships, identity, or life path. Mood or anxiety symptoms can also emerge. People might face circumstances they didn’t ask for and through no fault of their own. Sometimes people feel stuck or aren’t operating in the way they’d like to be, and they might not even be sure why. As a board certified psychiatrist, I have trained and specialized in the assessment and management of mental health conditions. I enjoy engaging and collaborating with patients in addressing their situation on their unique life journey.

Helping people accomplish their potential and live fulfilling lives is the goal that we work towards. Unconditional acceptance and finding a way forward, identifying the conflicts, resolving them for a happier tomorrow are the focus of treatment. I enjoy working with patients suffering with depression, anxiety disorders, chronic pain and addictive disorders. Chronic conditions take away not only from the individual, but also from the families.

We provide medication & interventional management of mood disorders &/or chronic pain. Our care is client centered & tailored to your specific needs. If you struggle with both chronic pain & a mood disorder, it is often difficult to get improvement with either problem, unless your pain & mood disorder are treated together, not the individual conditions separately. We look at all the moving pieces in the puzzle that are holding you back from leading an authentic life with purpose.
