My ideal clients are children ages 10 and older, adolescents, and adults who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood changes, stress, burnout, or difficult life transitions and are looking for compassionate, collaborative mental health care. Many come to the practice feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or unheard in previous treatment experiences. At Starting New Collaborative, we focus on creating a supportive and welcoming environment where patients feel comfortable, respected, and actively involved in their care while working toward improved emotional wellness, stability, and overall functioning.
I provide psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and supportive mental health care for children ages 10 and older, adolescents, and adults. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and personalized, with a focus on helping patients feel heard, supported, and actively involved in their treatment journey.
Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, especially when you are already struggling. My goal is to provide a calm, supportive, and judgment-free environment where you feel heard, respected, and comfortable taking the next steps toward improved mental wellness and emotional balance.
