Situations outside of our control can sometimes leave us feeling confused and unprepared for the most sudden and unexpected of life's changes. All that we can do is our best to rebuild what was lost and taken from us, reestablish the supports we once had, and open up ourselves to new opportunities for growth. Our sessions are designed to be collaborative in nature. For some patients this means working to develop the knowledge and skills necessary to achieve the goals you set for yourself. For others, my role is simply to answer questions and continue clarifying the steps between where you are and where you imagine yourself being.
Areas of Focus: Medication management, depression, anxiety, OCD, BP, non-stimulant ADHD, stage of life stress, transitional psychiatry, and mental health education. Even if you've never seen a psychiatrist before, I encourage you to book a consultation and we can just talk through all of your available options so you can decide what's the best fit for you.
I believe every patient has their own unique set of roots, tied to a distinct biological and social story. Learning about these stories and working with my patients to overcome the challenges within them is what I enjoy most about practicing medicine. If you have any questions, you may book with me directly online at Lakeside-Psychiatry.com
