During the initial 60-minute visit, a comprehensive assessment will be conducted by:

• Discussing past and present psychiatric symptoms and behavioral patterns, 

• Gathering a complete medication history, 

• Reviewing relevant history information provided prior to the meeting, and 

• Establishing patient identified treatment goals. 

Mental health screenings and questionnaires are utilized to assess for specific mental health disorder while others are used to monitor symptoms progression over time.

If a patient needs further psychological assessments, a referral to an appropriate specialist will be made.

Following appointments focus on medication effectiveness and needed adjustments. These appointments last approximately 30-minutes and may be conducted in person or via telehealth. Patients are expected to be seen in office a minimum of twice a year. This frequency may increase as related to medications prescribed.  

Additional brief therapeutic interventions may be incorporated into medication management sessions as needed. 

I do not offer therapy-only sessions. 

Because therapy is an integral part to treatment, guidance in obtaining a local or online therapist can be arranged.

During sessions, patients may be directed to free and low-cost educational and therapeutic resources linked in this site. Materials are reviewed and added regularly.
