Although I have a multitude of experience, my most rewarding has been assisting recovering substance abuse clients to stabilize their mental health and improve their quality of life.
When working in mental health clients my focus is holistic wellness and meeting each client where they are and assisting them in reach their highest quality of life. Remember you are not a disease, you are experiencing symptoms of a disease process.

I often use cognitive behavioral therapy. If therapy is requested during your psychiatric evaluation, we will find out what brought you in and which symptoms are most problematic. We will work to erase those negative thoughts and emotions which cause conflict in your activities of daily living, while utilizing medications as necessary.
