ADHD Psychiatrists in Cook County, IL

Traditional psychiatric practices can be rigid and often push patients into boxes established by the DSM. While understanding the importance of identifying specific diagnoses, I strive to break apart labels and eliminate associated stigmas. I believe everyone falls on a continuum of multiple diagnoses, most of which are rooted in generational and childhood trauma. I hope to support my patients both pharmacologically and therapeutically on their journey to understanding and accepting themselves fully. I believe in treating the “whole-person” and emphasize the importance of exploring mind-body connection through mindfulness practices.

I believe in taking an integrated approach to treatment. I practice a non-judgmental style and aim to be welcoming to patients of all backgrounds, as each person’s journey is unique. When formulating an approach to medication, I keep the patient’s history and experiences top of mind. My goal is to work side by side helping patients find answers within, as they know themselves the best. By working together through challenges and stressful times, I hope to help my patients walk away with a better understanding of themselves and the relationship between medication and therapy.

All patients are ideal to me. They come with a unique set of circumstances that require individualized treatment plans. The treatment will consist of medication management (if required), referrals, and counseling. The goal is to return the individual to a healthier self in mind and body. I can offer comprehensive care consisting psychiatric medication management in collaboration with your other treating providers.
