I blend Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with Motivational Interviewing to meet you where you are.
Relocating to a fast-growing area like the Pass brings opportunities, but it shouldn't mean losing access to essential care. For professionals and first responders moving into Beaumont and Banning, ignoring relocation stress, sleep loss, or past trauma only compromises performance at work and home. Depression often shows up not as sadness, but as burnout, anger, and lost motivation. This site isn't monitored. Call (909) 707-6261, leave a voicemail with your name, number, and new/existing status. Due to spam, we only return voicemails within the hour! We look forward to caring for you!

As a mental health professional, a sister, a wife, a mom - I genuinely like helping people. But in an industry where patients outnumber practitioners 340 to 1, it is hard not to fall into the trap of desensitization - the tendency to treat patients not as people, but as cases. It wasn’t the kind of practitioner I wanted to be. So last year, I decided to start my own clinic - MindWell Mental Health Services - intent on maintaining that sincere desire to help others, that personalized approach, that human-to-human connection, that warmth, that dimension.

FAQ - Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Psychiatrists
Do psychiatrists provide cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)?
Yes, many psychiatrists provide CBT as a therapeutic approach in sessions with clients. CBT is an evidence-based form of therapy that focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to mental health challenges. Psychiatrists who provide CBT can be particularly valuable when your condition may benefit from both therapy *and* medication, such as depression, anxiety, OCD, ADHD or PTSD. However, some psychiatrists choose to focus primarily on medication management rather than ongoing therapy. When evaluating potential psychiatrists, it can be helpful to confirm that they actively incorporate CBT techniques into their practice (rather than focusing solely on prescribing medication)

What is the difference between CBT with a psychiatrist versus a therapist?
The primary difference between CBT with a psychiatrist versus a therapist is that a psychiatrist can integrate medication management with CBT treatment, while non-psychiatrist therapists (such as psychologists, counselors, or social workers) provide CBT without the ability to prescribe medications. In a CBT session with a psychiatrist, you will work on the same core techniques as you would with any CBT provider, such as identifying cognitive distortions or challenging negative thought patterns. However, a psychiatrist can also monitor how medication affects your symptoms. This integrated approach can be especially helpful for conditions like major depression or bipolar disorder, where medication often works together with therapy to produce better outcomes than either treatment alone.

Should I see a psychiatrist or therapist for CBT?
The choice to see a psychiatrist or therapist depends on the severity of your symptoms and whether medication might be part of your treatment plan. A psychiatrist who provides CBT is appropriate when you have more severe mental health symptoms that may require medication. A non-psychiatrist therapist may be appropriate when your symptoms are mild to moderate, you prefer to try therapy without medication first, or you are already stable on medication prescribed by another provider. It is worth noting that psychiatrists typically charge higher rates than other therapists due to their medical training, and psychiatry sessions are not always covered by insurance. Therefore, some people start with a therapist for CBT and later add a psychiatrist to their treatment team if medication becomes necessary.
