If you are caring for someone with a serious illness, raising a child with complex needs, or running on empty after years of putting everyone else first — this is the right place.
You already know how to show up for the people you love. What's harder is asking for something for yourself. Many of my clients waited longer than they should have before reaching out, because they felt guilty, or because they convinced themselves they could handle it alone. If that sounds familiar, I want you to know: getting support isn't a sign that you're struggling. It's a sign that you're paying attention.

Life has been really tough recently for most. I recently chatted with numerous people who are feeling anxious or down. Most people I speak with wait a long time before starting treatment. Why continue to wait? Would you like to have a better relationship with anxiety? Are your nervous or self-critical thoughts bringing you down? Are you prepared to try something new? I use a compassionate and empathetic approach to evidence-based interventions such as CBT, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy.

My work is focused on cultivating and utilizing therapeutic relationships for deep self-exploration. Expanding our conscious awareness is critical to help identify and work with the root cause(s) of our joy and suffering. A prescription pad isn't sufficient to treat complex human mind-body-heart challenges like depression, anxiety, disordered eating, OCD, or PTSD/CPTSD. Building a safe, reliable supportive psychotherapeutic relationship is as important in my work as medication. I also offer Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy. I am accepting patients in IL, SD, FL, CA, and OR. I see patients in person in CA.

FAQ - Grief Psychiatrists
How can psychiatrists help with grief?
Grief is a strong emotional response to loss, often triggered by the death of a loved one, the end of a meaningful relationship, or a major life transition. While grief itself is not a mental health disorder, it can cause a range of physical and emotional symptoms, such as disrupted sleep, changes in appetite, irritability, and nausea. Grief can also intensify symptoms of existing mental health conditions, such as depression or anxiety. Although many people experience a gradual easing of grief over time, others may find that their symptoms persist or interfere with daily life. In these cases, working with a psychiatrist who has experience supporting individuals through grief can be beneficial.
How do psychiatrists approach treatment for grief?
Because there are no specific medications or therapy type designed solely for grief, treatment typically begins with a thorough assessment of an individual's current symptoms and circumstances. Based on this evaluation, a psychiatrist may recommend a personalized treatment plan. This could include the prescription of medication, such as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), a type of antidepressant that may help regulate mood during the grieving process. Psychiatrists may also incorporate evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps clients examine how their thoughts about loss contribute to emotional distress, or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on accepting painful emotions and identifying coping strategies that align with one's personal values and long-term goals.
How can I find a psychiatrist who specializes in grief support?
To find a psychiatrist who specializes in grief, individuals can use the Psychology Today provider directory, which allows users to filter by therapeutic approach, insurance accepted, or shared identity characteristics, such as gender. When reaching out to a potential provider, it can be useful to ask about their experience working with grief, how they approach treatment planning, and whether they offer both medication management and therapy. Practical considerations such as office location, telehealth availability, and insurance coverage should also be considered to ensure a good fit.
