What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, we will start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you are facing and create an individualized plan for us to work through in follow up

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My philosophy is to treat every patient as I would like to be treated. I am morally obligated to use my knowledge to serve and educate individuals in my community. As a healthcare professional, I can change how mentally ill individuals are viewed and treated. I provide psychiatric evaluation and medication management. However, I do not provide individual therapy.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I love working with all ages, but my focus area is adults suffering from Depression Anxiety, Bipolar, ADHD and Schizophrenia.
