We offer SPRAVATO and TMS! I specialize in psychiatric evaluation and medication management for ages 16 and up. I believe in working together collaboratively to meet your treatment goals. Collaboration is achieved through honest communication about your symptoms and medication side effects. I do not believe medications are the answer to everything. I believe that therapy is critical for learning coping skills and dealing with past traumas in a healthy way. Often times therapy, in combination with medication will provide the best outcome.

Do you struggle to find the energy to do things you once enjoyed? Activities that used to bring happiness and fulfillment now feel like an insurmountable task. Even the simplest of tasks, like getting out of bed or taking a shower, feels impossible. The constant negative thoughts and feelings are overwhelming. You might not feel as if you can ever get better but you are ready to find a way to get out of the isolating hole of depression. You are ready to start living your life again. Clients come to me looking for a compassionate and patient provider who brings them hope in even the darkest of times.

About Psychiatrists, meds and Psychiatric Nurses.

A Psychiatrist in Lincoln is a qualified medical doctor who specializes in treating mental health issues and diagnosable disorders.

Lincoln Psychiatrists differ from other mental health professionals in that they may prescribe medication as well as practice psychotherapy in treatment. Sometimes, Psychiatrists form part of a clinical team in which they will diagnose and prescribe, while psychologists or therapists provide the client's psychotherapy.

As part of a clinical assessment, Psychiatrists may conduct physical examinations, take blood tests, and order and interpret lab tests and brain image scans, such as CT scans, CAT Scans, and MRIs.

The field of psychiatry in Lincoln has many sub-specialties, including pediatric psychiatry. Those who work with the elderly are called geriatric psychiatrists.

Other related sub-specialties include cognition psychiatry, addiction psychiatry, psychosomatic, forensic, reproductive medicine specialties, psychopharmacology , psychiatric genetics, neuroimaging, and clinical neurophysiology.

Psychiatric nurse practitioners in Lincoln, or mental health nurse practitioners, generally have an MS degree in nursing (MSN) and a number of years of training to become certified. Psychiatric nurse practitioners are able to assess and diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication. Lincoln Psychiatric nurse practitioners also have training that enables them to include psychotherapy with treatment.
