My approach is collaborative and tailored to you. I take the time to truly understand who you are—your experiences, your challenges, and what matters most in your life—so we can create a treatment plan that actually fits you. Together, we’ll identify your specific concerns and work toward goals that feel realistic and meaningful, not overwhelming or one-size-fits-all. While I provide thoughtful medication management when appropriate, I believe that feeling better often involves more than medication alone. We’ll also explore lifestyle factors, coping strategies, and patterns that may be impacting your well-being.

Have you ever wondered if you are being heard or searched for a care provider who can relate to your challenges? Are you in need of medication management - initiation, adjustments, and maintenance? I have several years of psychiatric and mental health experience working with individuals aged 5 to 65 and older adults in inpatient, residential, and outpatient settings with various mental health issues. My treatment approach embodies the individual's developmental and bio-psycho-social histories and how they contribute to illness.

Victoria Nee
Psychiatrist, MD
Chicago, IL 60602
I am available weekdays for in-person or video sessions.
Are you concerned your psychiatrist might diagnose & prescribe medication ("match the pill to the ill") without addressing root causes of your problem? Most psychiatrists don't look at the brain as part of the body & don't think about underlying conditions such as inflammation, an unhealthy gut, high toxin load, food sensitivities, or "out-of-whack" hormones (to name just a few). These conditions don't just affect your body, but also affect your brain, resulting in depression, anxiety, insomnia, "brain fog" & other psychological symptoms. Medication can work spectacularly well, but often doesn't, if the body is too imbalanced.

FAQ - In Person Psychiatrists
What are the advantages of in-person psychiatry?
Psychiatrists are trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of mental health conditions, often using a combination of therapy and medication. For many individuals, working with a psychiatrist who offers accessible and consistent in-person care is an important part of building a strong and effective therapeutic relationship. While remote care has become more widely available, in-person psychiatry offers several unique advantages. Face-to-face sessions can help foster a deeper sense of connection and trust, particularly during the early stages of treatment. In-person visits may also be more appropriate for young children, individuals who benefit from a structured clinical environment, or those with complex mental health needs requiring close observation and coordination of care. Many patients also find that meeting in a dedicated office space—free from the distractions of home—helps them stay focused and engaged during sessions.

How can I find a psychiatrist who offers in-person services?
Psychology Today's online directory is a valuable resource for finding psychiatrists (MDs) and psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) who provide in-person services. As you explore your options, consider each provider's clinical expertise, therapeutic style, and office location to ensure their services are a good fit and easily accessible for you.
