Baton Rouge, LA 70816
Why does school feel harder for you when it looks so easy for everyone else? Assignments stack up before you even know where to start. Deadlines sneak up on you. You’re rushing between classes, forgetting things, or feeling like you’re always one step behind. Your emotions can feel intense, even over “small” things. You study longer, try harder, and still wonder why keeping up feels exhausting. Your mind won’t stop overthinking, replaying conversations, worrying about grades, and feeling anxious. If any of this sounds familiar, you're not lazy or failing. You're a young person trying to navigate a lot, and you need support.

Taking the step to get evaluated can feel intimidating, but for many students it is the moment things finally make sense.

I work exclusively with adult women navigating major life transitions that can bring overwhelming or confusing emotions, often tied to identity shifts, loss, relationships, or motherhood. My approach focuses on understanding and healing the underlying patterns shaping distress rather than simply managing symptoms. As a psychiatrist, I practice in an integrative and unconventional way.

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.
