Many different factors cause depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions. There may be situational, biological or hormonal components to a person’s suffering. Better self-care, coping techniques, and other alternatives may help, but may not bring enough relief or recovery necessary to function effectively and feel good. We perform thorough evaluations and have a discussion with you to determine if medication would be helpful or advised. Each person’s comfort level is respected and nothing is prescribed that goes against your willingness or readiness.

The benefits of such treatment not just symptom alleviation, but permanent desired changes and expanded self-knowledge that improve the quality and depth of one's life.

It leads to expanded possibilities in relationships and work and an increased sense of agency in one's life.

You are more than just a mental health diagnosis. There is an underlying reason for mental health issues, often unexplored or unexplained. When these are recognized, the goal of treatment can be clarified and is often easier to accept. I am a nurse first and strive to see and treat the patient as a whole person. I have a special interest in working with clients with mental health issues and comorbid chronic pain. By addressing physical wellness and combining medication management with diet, exercise, and vitamin supplementation, I add a holistic approach to the treatment of mental health.

Have you felt as if your past psychiatry providers didn’t have the time for your concerns, or even didn’t really know you or hear you? Working together to find the most appropriate diagnoses and best possible medication or other treatment modalities for you as an individual is my goal. I believe that this can be best accomplished by establishing a mutually respectful and trusting relationship, where you will be treated as an individual, not an illness or a number.

Tele-health only. Have you ever felt rushed through a mental health med visit? Have you ever felt like "just" a diagnosis or collection of symptoms? You are more than that: You are a complex and whole human being and you have a right to be seen. You also have a right to mental wellbeing - the ability to experience and move through all normal human emotions (happiness, anger, sadness, anxiety) with the energy and motivation to do the things you need and want to do.

The providers at our clinic are dedicated to providing the most empathetic, effective, evidence-based treatment for our patients with mood and anxiety disorders. Our providers understand the complexities of the various psychiatric medications used to manage these illnesses so our treatments are more effective. We have often found that patients who are referred to us have been put on many psychiatric medications that may not be truly targeting the individual's symptoms. We take the time to truly understand our patients, therefore, our treatment is truly more tailored to the individual.
