ADHD in adults looks different than in children. It’s often missed, misdiagnosed, or dismissed. Here’s what to know and how to get properly evaluated.
One of the most common questions in psychiatric care. The short answer: not necessarily. Here’s how we approach medication timelines.
Understanding the difference between psychiatrists and therapists can help you get the right care faster. Here’s what each does and when to see whom.
The first visit is 60-90 minutes and covers your full history: current symptoms, past treatments, medical history, sleep, stress, life context, and goals. It’s a real conversation where you’re heard. We’ll create a diagnosis and treatment plan together by the end.
Yes—when clinically indicated. Medication is one tool among many. Sometimes it’s the right fit, sometimes therapy alone is better, and often a combination works best. We decide together based on your symptoms, preferences, and goals.
We focus on diagnosis and medication management. If therapy is needed, we can collaborate with your existing therapist or provide referrals to trusted providers. Many patients benefit from both medication and therapy working together.
Often within a week, depending on current availability. We try to accommodate urgent needs when possible. Book online or request a discovery call to discuss timing.
Your privacy and trust are central to my work. I collect only the information necessary to provide safe, effective treatment and never share or sell personal data.
Telehealth sessions and electronic records follow HIPAA and state-specific privacy laws.
You’ll receive the full policy before your first appointment.
