Welcome, I’m Sara. Are you a woman, adolescent, or the parent of a teen struggling with intense mood swings, irritability, or emotional shifts related to puberty, hormonal changes, or life transitions? You’re not alone. I specialize in supporting women and girls ages 12 to 50 who are experiencing depression, anxiety, ADHD, and mood disorders influenced by hormonal and metabolic factors. My approach integrates conventional psychiatric care with lifestyle psychiatry, rooted in the principles of lifestyle medicine.
Your treatment may include nutrition-informed strategies, stress reduction techniques, and targeted lab assessments, all designed to support emotional balance, mental clarity, and metabolic wellness.
If you’re ready to reclaim your sense of balance and take meaningful steps toward lasting wellness, I invite you to visit my website to request an appointment. I look forward to supporting you on your path.
