As a child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist, it is important to understand a person's developmental trajectory as well as the neurobiological underpinnings of mental health issues that impact our day to day lives.  During our initial assessment, I will use standardized scales that will objectively measure your progress while in treatment and to help target goals.

I take a conservative approach to prescribing medications as the cause of people's mood changes are multifactorial and can benefit from lifestyle modification.  I also use mindfullness and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to help cope with stressors.  Whether it's related to underlying medical problems, disordered eating or substance abuse issues, they all contribute to a person's clinical presentation.  The mind and body are truly interconnected and adapting treatment accordingly leads to improvement in function and a sense of general well-being.
