Howard Chavis
Psychiatrist, MD
Verified

My practice offers something for everyone. I say this because I treat children, adolescents, young adults, adults and
seniors
. As a psychiatrist I can prescribe medication. However, my expertise and experience as a therapist, allowing me to understand my patients as whole persons, can minimize the amount of medication necessary or problems can often be addressed and resolved with therapy alone. This is accomplished by helping patients identify and effectively manage their emotions.

I am Accepting New Patients Either In-Office or Virtually! My goal is to help everyone that comes to me to the best of my ability. Most of the patients I see carry diagnoses of adjustment disorder, ADHD, or mood and anxiety disorders. I feel every patient should have a say in their treatment plan. As a provider, I will work with you to develop a treatment plan that helps you and makes your family feel comfortable with it. I use both psychopharmacology and psychotherapy, with evidence-based practice. I also believe in the use of non-pharmacological means can also help a patient when necessary.

I have successfully treated multiple conditions including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorders, peripartum disorders amongst other psychiatric disorders with a combination of medication and therapy.

For people suffering with depression or anxiety, often times they are aware that their own thoughts and behaviors are getting in the way of finding happiness. These issues can cause conflicts with loved ones or in the workplace. However, learning how to change these patterns can be difficult. I work with patients to understand the factors in their past and present that contribute to current unhelpful patterns, to help them overcome barriers to changing these thoughts and behaviors, and to create new, more helpful ways of approaching life's challenges.
