DIAGNOSTIC EVALUATION
Through a holistic approach to mental health, I try viewing each patient as a whole rather than a single symptom to be treated. I consider developmental history, social stressors, biological predispositions, and co-occurring medical conditions when making a diagnosis. All treatment decisions are made in collaboration with patient (and family for minors).
Please contact me today to schedule an appointment.
PSYCHOTHERAPY
Therapy can be an intimidating prospect for many people. I aim to help patients feels comfortable, safe and that they are in partnership with me to meet their goals and feel better. By working together, therapy can be a rewarding experience where patients come to understand themselves and their patterns in new ways and gain insights into their relationships, flaws and strengths.
Therapy modalities include psychodynamic psychotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, exposure with response prevention, and play therapy.
MEDICATION MANAGEMENT
After a careful and thorough assessment, medication management may be recommended if patient's are interested in this treatment modality. Medication follow ups are conducted monthly on average, but can extend to every 3 months for established and stable patients.
For individuals under the age of 18, medication management is done in conjunction with therapy or in collaboration with patient's existing therapist.
