We can work together to improve symptoms of anxiety, depression, OCD, insomnia, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and ADHD, among others.

I treat adults (18+) located in Texas, California, and Washington State though stimulant prescribing may ONLY be done in California and Washington State. I DO NOT prescribe stimulant medications in the state of Texas. However, we can discuss and prescribe non-stimulant options for ADHD. I look forward to meeting with you to see how I can assist you in your wellness journey.
