I work with adults struggling with depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, and co-occurring substance use — including individuals who haven't found adequate relief through past medication trials. Many of my patients come to me feeling frustrated after years of incomplete treatment, unsure what's still worth trying. Others are new to psychiatric care and want a thoughtful, science-backed starting point. Wherever you are in your journey, the right medication plan should be built around your full life, not just your symptom list.
