I work best with people who take their mental health seriously but juggle demanding or non-traditional schedules. Many of my clients feel exhausted, on edge, or stuck in patterns of overthinking, panic, or low mood, and they're ready to sleep better, feel more stable, and show up fully at work and at home. Having spent 14 years on the night shift myself, I know how hard it is to ask for help when you're already running on empty. That's why I offer flexible, late-night scheduling to make care fit your life.

FAQ - Alzheimer's and Dementia Psychiatrists
How can psychiatrists help with Alzheimer's disease?
Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurological condition characterized by memory loss, cognitive decline, and diminished decision-making capacity, most commonly affecting older adults. While some degree of memory loss can be part of the normal aging process, more significant symptoms—such as difficulty with familiar tasks, confusion about time or place, and noticeable changes in mood or personality—may indicate the presence of Alzheimer's disease and warrant evaluation by a medical professional, such as a psychiatrist. Psychiatrists who specialize in Alzheimer's are knowledgeable about the disease's complexities and its impact on both individuals and families, and they are often well-equipped to support those living with Alzheimer's, as well as their caregivers, by helping them navigate the emotional, behavioral, and psychological challenges that can emerge as the condition progresses.

What does psychiatric treatment for Alzheimer's involve?
Psychiatric treatment for Alzheimer's typically begins with a neuropsychiatric assessment to evaluate an individual's current cognitive functioning and mark changes over time. This assessment helps confirm a formal diagnosis and guides the development of a personalized treatment plan. Treatment then often includes a combination of psychotherapy and medication, tailored to the severity and nature of the individual's symptoms. Psychiatric medications may be used to reduce distressing symptoms, stabilize mood, or address behavioral disturbances. Given that Alzheimer's disease affects multiple domains of functioning and evolves through distinct stages, psychiatrists often work as part of a care team, which may also include primary care physicians, neurologists, geriatricians, occupational therapists, social workers, and other specialists. In many cases, psychiatrists also actively involve family members and caregivers in the treatment process.

How can I find a psychiatrist who specializes in Alzheimer's disease?
The Psychology Today online directory is a valuable resource for finding psychiatrists who specialize in working with older adults and individuals with Alzheimer's disease. The platform offers search filters to narrow results based on specialty areas such as Alzheimer's disease and related conditions, such as dementia. Provider profiles offer detailed information on therapeutic approach, professional credentials, accepted insurance, languages spoken, and session fees. Reviewing this information can help individuals, families, and caregivers identify providers who best align with their specific needs—whether they're seeking support after a recent diagnosis or ongoing care throughout the disease's progression.
