About My Clients
I have a specific interest in working with teens and young adults, ages 14 years and older dealing with depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, OCD, panic disorder, postpartum depression, adjustment disorders or self-esteem issues. I typically provide psychiatric assessments and/or medication management. I can also help you make informed decisions regarding treatment decisions and symptom management.
My Background and Approach
My primary practice goal is to help relieve a person’s suffering and improve their quality of living through an empathetic and humanistic framework. I approach every client with the view of them as a fellow--human being, and I firmly believe that you are the expert of your own life and health care needs. Thus I strive to provide person--centered care, and will work with you to create a treatment approach grounded in your unique values. Medications can often provide a helpful tool in supporting a person’s efforts to heal and to live a meaningful life. Through my experiences, I have witnessed the importance of valuing each person’s expectations and views regarding medication treatment. Therefore, I strive to include clients in decisions to start or change medications in appreciation of your knowledge and values. I am a large proponent of patient education regarding the treatment options available so that you can feel confident and knowledgeable regarding your care.
