As a healthcare professional specializing in mental health and weight management, I understand the complex interplay between mental health issues, medication, and weight gain. Mental health disorders and the medications used to treat them can often contribute to weight gain, creating a cycle that can be challenging to break. Recognizing this, I emphasize the importance of addressing both mental health and weight management in a comprehensive treatment plan. My approach is not just about losing weight; it's about improving overall mental health, boosting self-esteem, and fostering a positive body image.

My name is Ally and I am currently accepting new patients for psychiatric evaluations + medication management for ages 10-65. When it comes to mental health, I truly believe that getting to know who you are as a whole person is one of the most important things that can happen. You are a person who has endured magical, painful, exciting, and hard things. You are more than just symptoms, and answers don't always just lie in prescriptions to "fix" these symptoms. Mental health is a whole-body experience and a journey, not merely a destination. Using medication to help with treatment is just a piece of the overall picture.
