I am so glad that you made the decision to see me as your provider or to look through my site. As your appointment approaches, it is understandable that you can be nervous.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
We would come up with a plan to move you forward, most likely it wouldn’t be the final plan which is normal. - We would discuss options for treatment, including psychotropic medications, lifestyle changes and even therapy. It is very likely on our first appointment you may not leave with a prescription but will be satisfied. - We will discuss other medical issues and how it affects your current needs. Most likely you may have had it addressed by a different provider or referred to a different specialist. However, if need arises that we may have to refer you to a different specialist that is appropriate we will not hesitate to do that. - We will talk about your diagnoses. - We will discuss how treatment will change as time progresses and how we will manage those changes in the future.
