Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Your first session will consist of a thorough 60–90-minute psychiatric evaluation to assess your mental health needs and develop a personalized treatment plan. A psychiatric evaluation is a comprehensive assessment that involves discussing your symptoms, medical history, and any other factors that may be impacting your mental well-being. During this evaluation, we explore various aspects of your mental and emotional health, including your mood, behavior, thought patterns, and life circumstances. This allows your provider to gain a deeper understanding of your unique situation and provide an accurate understanding of your mental health needs, which is the foundation for effective treatment. Whether you are seeking care for the first time or looking to refine an existing treatment plan, our evaluations are designed to help guide you toward the best course of action for your mental health. Subsequent sessions include Medication management which involves the careful evaluation, prescription, and ongoing monitoring of psychiatric medications to help alleviate your symptoms and improve your overall well-being. We take a personalized approach, working closely with you to find the right medication and dosage, adjusting as necessary to achieve optimal results. Throughout your treatment, I regularly assess your response to medications, monitor for side effects, and make changes when needed to ensure that your treatment remains safe and effective. My goal is to provide you with the highest level of care, combining clinical expertise with compassionate support to help you feel your best.
