Welcome
Seeking clarity and relief in your emotional life can feel overwhelming — especially if prior care felt brief, rushed, or purely medication-driven. Many patients come here after feeling unheard, discouraged, or unsure where to turn next.
This practice is built around something increasingly rare: deliberate, attentive, genuinely personalized psychiatric care.
We slow down. We understand your history and current challenges thoroughly. We collaborate to find what meaningfully supports your emotional and cognitive health.
We integrate mind, body, and lived life — not just symptoms.

Comprehensive Evaluation
A detailed assessment exploring mood, history, patterns, physiology, sleep, stress, relationships, and lifestyle — with time to feel heard and understood.
Medication Management
When medication is part of care, it is used conservatively and tailored. We refine thoughtfully and monitor closely.
Integrated Psychotherapy
Evidence-based psychotherapy woven into treatment to foster insight, emotional regulation, and lasting change. Learn how psychiatrists safely combine psychotherapy and medication.
Lifestyle & Integrative Support
Focus on foundational contributors to mental well-being: sleep quality, stress responses, nutritional influences, movement, mind-body practices, and nervous-system balance. Learn more about integrative psychiatry.
