In addition to the treatment of mood and anxiety disorders, psychosis and ADHD, her areas of expertise include reproductive psychiatry and management of psychiatric symptoms occurring from complex medical illness.
Dr. Toohey designed her integrative psychiatry practice to be flexible to your needs. She is knowledgeable in both medication management and psychotherapy. In addition to ongoing care, Dr. Toohey is available for consultation including those related to medication surrounding pregnancy, fertility treatments, menopause and complex medical conditions.
Call Dr. Toohey directly for a free phone consultation and to learn more about her practice. In most cases, patients can be scheduled for their first appointment within days of a phone screen.
