Life is difficult. Live long enough, and you will face problems too complicated, painful, or persistent to manage alone. Many people try to push through anxiety, low mood, poor sleep, stress, irritability, grief, focus problems, or responsibilities that do not slow down. I work with adults and teens 13+ who have reached the point where they want more specialized psychiatric care. Based in Chattanooga and serving Tennessee by telehealth, I offer after-hours appointments for people whose work, school, family, or life demands make traditional appointments harder.
I provide psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and therapy-informed follow-up for anxiety, depression, stress, sleep problems, mood symptoms, ADHD, and life strain. My approach is careful and collaborative: understand the problem, consider what may be contributing to, and choose treatment thoughtfully.
If you have been trying to manage on your own and are ready for more support, I would be glad to talk with you. You can request an appointment here, and we'll get started.

Medications can be highly effective, but lasting change often requires more than prescribing. I integrate CBT strategies, acceptance and commitment therapy, motivational interviewing, and practical education to help patients build healthier ways to think, respond, and cope.
