I have many years of experience in prescribing psychotropic medications and I don’t want to see anyone who needs this service to be denied because of cost. I provide an initial one hour assessment followed by a briefer medication check every 3 to 6 months, depending on your need. I am also available within hours by text for any questions. I also recommend wholistic remedies. I especially want to serve the uninsured or unemployed. I also provide psychotherapy/life-coaching for anxiety, grief, depression or any other issue which keeps you from enjoying your life.
Medications are prescribed for symptoms associated with Eating Disorders, PTSD, complicated grief reactions, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder and insomnia related to stress. I also encourage use of supplements or behavioral techniques. I can lower fees persons who are uninsured and unemployed. I encourage emotional support animals.
A 60 minute initial medication assessment is $75 and then $30 for each brief follow up medication check for persons who must pay out of pocket. This is also negotiable. I believe that anyone who is honestly seeking help to move forward should not be discouraged for lack of money. Psychotherapy sessions are also on a sliding scale as low as $45/ hour session.

I begin by a storytelling assessment in which I encourage description of your feelings rather than a diagnostic label. You are a person and not a label. After the first session of 1 hour I can suggest medication, if needed.
