Areas of focus:
-
ADHD
ADHD in adults often goes unrecognized, yet it can impact work, relationships, and self-esteem. I provide comprehensive evaluations and personalized treatment to help improve focus, organization, and emotional regulation, supporting you in building a more structured, manageable, and fulfilling daily life.
-
Depression
Depression can drain energy, motivation, and joy, making daily life feel overwhelming. I offer compassionate evaluation and evidence-based treatment to help lift emotional heaviness and stabilize mood. My goal is to support your return to balance, connection, and a renewed sense of possibility.
-
Anxiety
Persistent anxiety can feel exhausting and all-consuming, interfering with focus, sleep, and relationships. I offer structured, personalized care for various anxiety disorders, including panic and social anxiety, designed to calm the nervous system and support long-term emotional ease and clarity.
-
Mood Disorders
Mood disorders often involve intense emotional highs and lows that disrupt daily functioning. I provide thoughtful diagnosis and treatment for conditions like bipolar disorder, helping you manage fluctuations, strengthen coping strategies, and build a more stable and empowered life over time.
-
Trauma in adults 18+
Unresolved trauma can shape your thoughts, emotions, and sense of safety. Whether the trauma is recent or long-standing, I provide trauma-informed psychiatric care that supports healing at your pace. Together, we work to reduce symptoms, restore stability, and help you feel more grounded.
-
Sleep Disorder
Sleep problems can impact your mood, energy, and overall mental health. I work with you to identify the root causes, whether psychological, behavioral, or neurological, and develop an individualized plan to improve sleep quality, restore restfulness, and support overall wellness and functioning.
