A Distinguished Fellow in the American Psychiatric Association, Dr. Susan Rich treats children, teens & young adults with anxiety, depression, ADHD, FASD/ND-PAE, and high functioning autism. Dr. Rich also works with women using a comprehensive approach to mental wellness. Is your child or teen struggling to meet the demands and pressures of school, college applications, transitioning to young adulthood? Are you seeking psychiatric care that combines psychotherapy with medication? You may be interested in Dr. Rich's holistic, integrative methods, combining psychotherapy with medication using strengths-based, concrete approaches.
Dr. Rich's integrative methods for evaluation, therapy and/or medication include nearly two decades of experience evaluating and treating patients with anxiety, depression, neurodevelopmental issues, and trauma histories. A comprehensive evaluation includes a diagnostic medical assessment and holistic treatment plan tailored to each patient's unique needs.
Mood/anxiety, attention, and/or social/emotional problems can leave kids, teens, and adults struggling to balance demands of school, work, friendships, and family. An individualized, holistic approach may help understand root causes and help create solutions for change. Though not easy, the first step is to find a physician you can trust to help guide you.

I work with women who are struggling with life transitions as well as children, teens and young adults having difficulty functioning at home, school or in the community. During the initial sessions, we will discuss the overall issues that manifested in the current level of functioning. The treatment plan will include subsequent sessions to explore attachment, trauma, medical and related issues.

My practice integrates psychoeducation and animal-assisted therapy with cognitive behavioral approaches. Patients choose whether to have their therapy in the office or outside interacting with farm animals. Gently raised goats, horses, a pig, emus, and chickens can provide a serene, calming multi-sensory experience during therapy sessions.
