What should a new client know about working with you?
At AMC Psychiatric Services, I combine evidence-based psychiatric care with psychotherapy-informed approaches to help patients better understand their symptoms and develop practical tools for long-term improvement. Treatment may include medication management, therapeutic strategies, and lifestyle interventions tailored to each individual’s needs.
I also focus on innovative therapies for patients who have not responded to traditional treatments, including advanced options for treatment-resistant depression and mood disorders when appropriate.
During the first visit, we complete a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation and discuss treatment goals together. I believe care works best when it is collaborative, and I encourage patients to actively participate in decisions about their treatment.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I take a holistic and collaborative approach, meaning we work together to create a personalized treatment plan that may include medication management, therapy-based strategies, and lifestyle interventions that support overall mental wellness.
For patients who need additional support or have not responded to traditional treatments, I also discuss innovative therapies and advanced treatment options when appropriate.
Follow-up visits focus on monitoring progress, adjusting treatment when needed, and developing practical tools to help you manage symptoms and improve your overall quality of life. My goal is to create a supportive environment where patients feel heard, informed, and actively involved in their care.
