My ideal client is someone driven to make positive changes in their life—a person who’s faced challenges and is ready to bounce back. I’m happy to work with anyone truly committed to getting back on track or keeping their momentum going. Usually, this person is looking for medication management as part of their treatment and plans to stick with it for the long term.
First, I review the current medication regimen, if there is one. If I suggest changes or start medication for the first time, I follow up every two weeks after starting any new medication or dosage adjustment. Once you’re on a stable regimen that supports optimal functioning, I arrange a 90-day supply of medication and schedule a follow-up every three months
Feel free to call or e-mail to schedule an initial consultation.

Initially, I evaluate the current medication regimen (if any). If I propose changes or start medication for the first time, I will about every 2 weeks following the introduction of any new medication or dosage change. Once I have you on a solid medication regimen that achieves optimal functioning, I typically order a 90-day supply of medication and follow you every 3 months.
