Getting to know Dr. Jaimee Mendez

Hello, and welcome! I am a board-certified psychiatrist who values building meaningful connections with my patients. I attended medical school at Touro University College of Medicine in California, then completed a 4 year residency in psychiatry at Naval Medical Center Portsmouth in Virginia, totaling over 17,000 hours of clinical training before practicing independently. As a proud U.S Navy veteran with 9 years of active-duty service, I bring a deep understanding of resilience, attention to detail, and compassion to my work. Before joining Skylark, I worked as a psychiatrist at Naval Station Great Lakes and the VA hospital in North Chicago. My clinical interests include ADHD, PTSD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, psychotic disorders, autism, and personality disorders. I am known for my direct, yet gentle, style and my collaborative, down-to-earth approach. I believe therapy is the cornerstone of psychiatric care and integrate it into each session, ensuring my patients feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their treatment. Outside of work, I enjoy exploring Illinois with my husband and 3 children. Thanks for reading, and I look forward to helping you meet your goals!
