If you are open to learning about meditation and want to try yoga. If you have been to rehab only to realize that it was a waste of money. If you want to design your own recovery with the best available evidence for success. If you see that investing in improving your mental health will pay dividends in life. These are all good reasons to meet Dr. Ratush. If cost and frequency of visits is restraining then Dr. Ratush may not be good fit.

We often try to manage changes in our emotional or physical wellbeing by ourselves. When we are feeling overwhelmed, stressed, irritable, worried, or sad, it may feel like an impossible task to reach out for help. Seeking care can be especially difficult when we experience feelings of guilt, shame, or disconnection. For many, looking for treatment options is the hardest part- and you are here! You are not alone, and you do not need to navigate these changes by yourself.

By creating a welcoming, responsive, and warm environment at Pegasus Psychiatry Associates, I strive to connect with all my patients and get to know each of them well. I collaborate closely with families, schools, primary care physicians, and therapists to obtain a complete view of each patient’s individual needs.
