Mental illness can be difficult to diagnose and even more difficult to treat. Our bodies are fine- tuned machines and one- size fits all treatments and medications are not an option. The most frustrating part of mental illness is getting the medication right. 

My goal as a psychiatrist is healing the traumas that created the illness and creating a safe place to grow and thrive. Medication without treatment of the underlying causes will never allow for growth. However, getting the medication right sooner, allows for a quicker start to working in the causes, which in many cases are manifested by trauma in our lives.

My partnership with Gene Sight allows me to have my patients tested to find out which medications work best with your body’s chemistry. This means that we spend less time on the trial- and -error processes of finding the right medication for anxiety, depression, and other psychiatric conditions and more time working towards healing, growing, and thriving.
