medication management

Our services include a thorough evaluation, medication management, patient education and may serve as a complement to a patient’s current treatment team. Our belief is that the patient benefits most by following the psychiatric evaluation with a dynamic and in-depth plan of action which is focused on the emotional and physical health of the patient. This treatment plan can include medication for the diagnosis and short-term or long-term counseling or psychotherapy.

Our experienced therapists utilize a range of evidence-based modalities tailored to meet your individual needs. These include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, and more. These approaches help address a variety of mental health concerns, such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues.

Tele-Psychiatry services

what is tele-psychiatry?

It is more than talking on the phone or using FaceTime, as those are not secure methods of communicating health information.

I use a secure, HIPPA compliant, private connection, that uses a personal code for your appointment to access.
You will not need to download anything, but you will need to allow access to your microphone and camera.
The most important part of having a good experience with clear audio and video is to have a good WIFI connection available. This means not downloading or streaming video or audio at the same time of your appointment.

When scheduling, select Tele-psychiatry Initial Evaluation or Follow up. Meet me in the virtual waiting room at your scheduled time, using the private and secure link that will be sent to you in a reminder before your appointment.

TIPS FOR BEST EXPERIENCE AND CONNECTIVITY:

Have one browser open, and do not have several programs running on your computer.
Do not have multiple Bluetooth audio devices running or it will interfere with the audio.
You want to make sure you have a good internet connection (WIFI).
A laptop or desktop computer works better than a phone or iPad . Clear your caches and close out multiple browsers and other video conference software.
If you use your phone make sure you are on wifi. Your LTE, 4G, 5G connection is better than spotty wifi.
A wired headset will work better than Bluetooth, though Bluetooth can be used, it can interfere with the audio.
