Ideally my patient is as invested in their care as I am. They could have a variety of diagnoses but the thing they have in common is they are willing to give the process time, are open to new ideas, and know there is no magic pill to fix all their problems. My patients want to get to the best version of themselves and are willing to try therapy as well as medications to help them reach that goal. My patient wants an empathetic, listening provider who can guide their care based on the evidence, but tailored to their individual needs.

With medication or not, many of my patients find the psychotherapy to be the most rewarding part of treatment. This is reflecting well on my interest and views on what actually works: having a resourceful, reliable guide on your way to a better life. A mind-healing endeavor could open doors you didn't know existed. In good hands, psychotherapy could become your next best journey, maybe the most meaningful and rewarding one, bringing you lasting benefits. I will help you feel safe, comfortable, listened to. I will guide and support your advance in the direction you wish to go, or help you find your way if you feel lost.
