About My Clients
If you have been struggling with depression, anxiety, grief, insomnia, PTSD, or other mental health issues, please know you are not alone. Sometimes, therapy alone may not improve your mental and emotional well-being. In such cases, adopting a comprehensive approach to your overall health, which includes medication, can offer significant advantages. I provide a safe and supportive environment where we can work together to address your mental health challenges.
My Background and Approach
As a primary care provider, I've noticed that many patients feel more comfortable discussing their mental health concerns with their PCP rather than seeking help elsewhere. However, due to the time required to address various medical issues, there's often limited time available during appointments to focus on mental health adequately. I have established a telemedicine practice dedicated solely to mental health issues to address this need. My practice offers medication management and supportive therapy with longer appointment times. I aim to provide comprehensive mental health care through secure and convenient telemedicine visits using the latest technology. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, or other mental health concerns, I'm here to provide the support and assistance you need.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Medicine marks my third vocation, following a diverse journey. I embarked on a career in the Air Force at 19, where I had the opportunity to travel extensively. Afterward, I dedicated two decades to teaching, nurturing young minds, and fostering a love for learning. Finally, I pursued my lifelong dream of becoming a physician by returning to school in my early forties. Alongside my professional endeavors, I actively volunteer at a Union Gospel mission, providing care for homeless individuals. Additionally, I have assisted during times of crisis, such as Hurricane Ian and the California floods, through my involvement with the Red Cross. Throughout this process, I have learned that lacking boundaries drains my energy and prevents others from learning vital self-care and personal growth skills. Moreover, boundaries serve as a shield against abuse and play a crucial role in fostering respect from others. I look forward to embarking on a new journey working with you!
