Services
Free Introductory Phone Call:
We will first speak for 15-20 minutes so that I may get a sense of what you are looking for in treatment and whether my services are the right fit for you. You will have the opportunity to ask questions about my practice, and we will discuss my fees.
Initial Evaluation:
We will meet in person for 60-90 minutes for an initial evaluation. We will discuss your reasons for seeking a consultation in more depth, as well as your current challenges and treatment goals. At the end of the evaluation, we will discuss my clinical impressions and treatment recommendations, and we will collaboratively develop an individualized treatment plan that works for you.
Ongoing Treatment:
Your individual treatment plan will be customized to your specific clinical needs and treatment goals. Treatment may include medication management, individual therapy, or a combination of the two.
Medication Management:
For some people, medication management alone is requested, especially if they are already connected with a therapist. Medications, when indicated, can help improve quality of life and overall functioning. The choice to try medications can be intimidating, and I am thoughtful about prescribing medications only when appropriate. When working with patients, I work to weigh all medication options in the context of their personal goals and preferences. If patients are currently working with individual therapists, I welcome the opportunity to collaborate with individual therapists and coordinate care during the course of treatment.
