A comprehensive psychiatric evaluation may include an exploration of:

• Current symptoms and concerns

• Mental health history

• Medical history

• Medications and supplements

• Sleep and lifestyle

• Work and professional stress

• Relationships and family history

• Cultural and social factors • Previous treatment

• Personal goals and priorities

Together, we will develop a clinical understanding of what you're experiencing and determine the appropriate next steps. The goal is clarity—not simply a diagnosis.

Medication can be an important component of psychiatric treatment when clinically appropriate. Medication-management appointments focus on understanding how you are responding to treatment, monitoring effectiveness and tolerability, considering your goals, and making adjustments when appropriate. Your treatment plan may involve medication, psychotherapy, lifestyle interventions, or a combination of approaches.

Understanding the patterns that keep you stuck. Psychotherapy provides an opportunity to slow down, examine what you're experiencing, and develop new ways of responding to life's challenges. My psychotherapy approach incorporates evidence-based interventions with CBT, ACT, and other evidence based modalities.
