I specialize in psychiatric evaluations and medication treatments for anxiety, depression, bipolar, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, postpartum depression, schizophrenia, and other conditions in adults and teens, along with mental health assessments and ADHD testing. I take care of FMLA, disability forms, and insurance verification so you can focus on getting better. I offer flexible telehealth appointments in IL, WA, OR, AZ, NM, MT, ND, DE and stay in close contact between visits. My goal is to help you find treatments that work.
I listen carefully to understand how your symptoms impact your daily life. During treatment, I prescribe medications and use therapy techniques that can begin working right away. I monitor your progress, making adjustments as needed to ensure you're getting results. My team handles FMLA forms and insurance issues while we work on your progress together.
When we meet for our first appointment, we'll talk about your symptoms and create a treatment plan that fits your specific needs. We'll discuss medication options that make sense for you and therapy strategies you can use right away. You'll leave with a clear plan for moving forward. Reach out and get started with a free consultation.
