Dissociative Disorders (DID) Psychiatrists in 94101

I launched my telepsychiatry practice in 2014 because I saw a need for high-quality, personalized psychiatric services that were also convenient for my patients. Due in large part to the Coronavirus pandemic, the need for convenient, online care has only increased. Since we have been doing this awhile, we know how to deliver high quality psychiatric care that maximizes convenience. Your appointment will always start on time, and you'll never waste precious time stuck in traffic, sitting in a waiting room, or standing in line at the pharmacy - we'll send your prescriptions directly to them.

I am currently an outpatient provider with experience in treating a number of psychiatric conditions, including substance abuse and behavioral addictions. In terms of an ideal patient, at our practice we strive to treat the patient as a whole and believe in the biologic, psychologic, social, and spiritual approach. As such, an idea patient would be willing to discuss each aspect. While I do prescribe medications, I try to minimize these through use of the other approaches. Of note, as I do outpatient office-based care, I do not provide 24/7 care.

I am a psychiatrist with a focused interest in working with patients who struggle with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Depression, Bipolar Disorder, and Anxiety. My style of psychiatry is a warm, curious, and empathic approach to working with my patients. I prefer to work collaboratively in order to help patients understand themselves and their treatment process.

As a psychiatrist, my ideal client is someone grappling with anxiety, depression, or life transitions, seeking not just relief but understanding and growth. They need a safe space to express themselves, tools to manage their emotions, and strategies to navigate life's challenges. Their goal is to build resilience, find joy and meaning in life, and improve their relationships. They want guidance, support, and empowerment to make meaningful changes, driven by a deep desire for personal development and a healthier, more fulfilling life.

As a psychiatrist, I specialize in managing a range of mental health conditions, from mood disorders like depression and bipolar disorder to treatment-resistant depression and various anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety, social anxiety, OCD, and panic disorder. I also have experience treating psychotic disorders such as schizophrenia, as well as substance use disorders and addictions. My ultimate goal is to do more than just help my patients achieve remission. I aim to reduce their suffering and elevate their sense of peace so they can truly thrive and flourish in their lives.

ACCEPTING NEW PATIENTS-Bonmente knows asking for help is not an easy thing to do. We also know that finding a provider you trust to help you navigate mental health care can be a challenge. That's why we're here and we're doing things differently. As a patient at Bonmente, you enjoy comprehensive treatments customized specifically for your unique circumstances, convenient telemedicine appointments that allow you to see your provider from the comfort of home, an online patient portal that lets you communicate directly with your provider, and a highly trained support team that makes becoming a patient as simple as it should be.

What are their issues, their needs, their goals? What do they want and why? I have enjoyed working with a wide variety of adults and youth over my career so far. My only requirements from patients are honesty and a desire for self-improvement.

We offer a range of psychiatric and psychological services, including TMS, Telepsychiatry, Psychopharmacology, Psychotherapy, Medication Management, and Spravato (Esketamine). TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) is for treating certain neurological conditions, like Major Depressive Disorder, and enhancing cognitive function. We also provide telepsychiatry options for patients who prefer home visits. We work with veterans too. Most insurances, including Medicare and Partnership (Beacon), are welcome.

Whatever brought you to this moment, I believe that the first step to healing is compassion and warmth. My utmost priority is for you to feel safe in the space we share as we explore what has been challenging for you. Attachment theory and humanistic psychology sit at the foundational core of my work. If we work together, we will explore the truth behind the symptoms, how medications might help, and most importantly, reflect on what makes life meaningful for you.
