Our Services
No right or wrong way to put the pieces together — we meet you where you are.
Psychiatric Evaluation
This is where we start — and we don’t rush it. Your first visit is a real conversation, not a checklist. We want to know your whole story: what’s been going on, what you’ve tried before, your medical history, your life, your goals. No detail is too small and no part of your story is irrelevant. You won’t leave with just a diagnosis and a follow-up date — you’ll leave with a plan that actually makes sense for you. Whether this is your first time seeking help or you’ve been through the system more times than you’d like, you’re welcome here exactly as you are. Let’s put the pieces together, together.
Medication Management
When people hear “medication management” they often picture walking out with a new prescription. But that’s not always the case — and honestly, that’s kind of the point.
Medication management here looks different for everyone. For some, it means finding the right medication after years of trying. For others, it means finally tapering off something that’s no longer serving them. Sometimes it’s adjusting a dose, tweaking a timing, or switching to something that fits your life better.
And sometimes? It means no new medications at all.
We also look at the full picture — vitamins, supplements, lifestyle, and what you’re already taking — because what goes into your body matters, all of it.
Nothing is added, changed, or removed without a real conversation. You are always part of the decision.
Genetic Testing — A Tool, Not a Crystal Ball
If you’ve tried medication after medication and nothing seems to work — or everything seems to cause side effects — genetic testing may be worth exploring.
Pharmacogenomic testing (a fancy way of saying “how your genes affect how you process medications”) can offer real insight into why certain medications haven’t worked the way they should. It looks at how your body metabolizes different drugs, which can help explain a lot of frustrating trial-and-error experiences.
But let’s be honest about what it is — and what it isn’t.
Genetic testing is a tool. One piece of the mosaic. It doesn’t tell us exactly what medication will work for you, and it doesn’t replace clinical judgment, your history, or the conversation we have together. It’s not a magic answer, and I won’t sell it to you as one.
What it can do is give us more information when we feel stuck. When someone has been through round after round of medication trials without success, having another data point can open doors we might not have considered. It can help us understand why your body responded the way it did — and point us in a direction we haven’t tried yet.
Think of it as one more piece of information in building your picture — not the whole picture itself.
Lab Work & Looking Deeper
Sometimes what looks like a mental health condition… isn’t. Or at least, not entirely.
Before reaching for a prescription, I believe in looking under the hood first. Because the truth is, a lot of what brings people into a psychiatry office — the fatigue, the fog, the low mood, the anxiety, the inability to focus — can have a physical root that never got investigated.
Thyroid dysfunction. Vitamin D deficiency. Low B12. An MTHFR gene variant that affects how your body processes folate and regulates mood. Iron levels. Inflammation. Hormonal shifts. These are real, measurable things that can look and feel exactly like depression, anxiety, or ADHD — and they deserve to be ruled out or addressed before anything else.
This is the part of care that often gets skipped. And it shouldn’t.
When you come here, we look at the whole person — not just the symptoms sitting on the surface. That sometimes means ordering labs, reviewing old results, or asking questions your previous providers never thought to ask. It means thinking outside the box, because you are not a checklist and your care shouldn’t be either.
Mental health and physical health are not separate things. We treat them that way.
