The decision to see a psychiatrist is not an easy one. But it can be the first step toward dramatically improving the quality of someone's life. Mental health issues rob people of their peace of mind, joy, and the ability to reach their full potential. Depression is a leading cause of disability, and stress and anxiety are often associated with serious medical diseases and pain disorders.
But some people still believe mental health problems come from character weaknesses. Fortunately, research in the mental health and neuroscience fields has begun to destigmatize these myths. We now know how mental and emotional ailments directly relate to genetics, brain structure and chemistry to influence health and illnesses. Today more than at any other time in history we have several choices of treatments for psychiatric and emotional problems.
An initial comprehensive evaluation is needed that will encompass all aspects of an individual's life. Knowing each patient's history personally makes it possible to provide personalized treatment for them physically and emotionally.

Services
In my practice, I pride myself in the ability to provide the highest standard of care for my patients.
If indicated, I am also trained in other treatment modalities including EMDR and hypnosis.
I frequently work with patients and their therapists as a part of a treatment team to provide the medication arm of the treatment.
However treatment is approached, it is done in a highly personalized way, tailored to each of my patient's individual needs and designed to help attain the personal growth they are striving for.

I am an out-of-network provider.
This means that I do not have contracts with any health insurance plans including Medicare to receive co-payments and then bill the insurance company for the balance of the amount they have decided to pay for my services.
Although I do not bill insurance companies for you I do provide a statement that has all the necessary information you need to submit in order to receive any benefits you may be due from them under your contract with your insurance company.
Some insurance companies have arrangements with physicians called "preferred providers" or "in-network providers."
