My psychiatric practice focuses on the therapeutic process to support you during difficult life transitions. This takes time for me to get to know you and for us to work together to determine what your needs are.

As such, I do not offer one-time diagnostic or medication consultations except in rare instances.

MY SERVICES INCLUDE:

Therapy

After our initial evaluation, if we determine that therapy would benefit you and we agree the connection is a good fit, we can discuss a commitment to regular 50-minute therapy sessions. These sessions are offered weekly to every other week so that in-depth work can be done.

Medication Management

Medication can be a helpful tool to support us during difficult episodes or transitions. I often think of medication as a life vest that helps you stay afloat while therapy empowers you to determine the best way back to shore. Substantial research suggests medication plus therapy creates the best outcomes for most people. Therefore I offer both 25-minute and 50-minute medication management appointments so we have adequate time to include therapeutic interventions. Initially, these appointments may be frequent, every 2-4 weeks. As things improve, we can space these appointments out further when appropriate.

Gender-Affirming Care & Consultation

I have years of experience working with youth and adults who are curious about gender transitions and need support during that exciting and challenging time. This can be in the form of medication, therapy, and consultation to provide letters for gender-affirming care. I also work with parents whose children are questioning their gender identity.
