I spent two decades as a psychiatrist in a psychiatric emergency room, and my heart always went out to all of the people who I saw who I thought were misdiagnosed and improperly treated. I hope to help change that now that I have moved into providing individual treatment. I am not a psychiatrist who just wants to see you just to repeatedly write unending prescriptions, either. More than anything, I want to just UNDERSTAND who you are and what you need. If we can achieve THAT, then I promise that I will do my best to help you get the BEST treatment for your condition and your situation.
By the way, we at the Cognitive Behavior Institute understand that no one is going to be a perfect "fit" for everyone. So if you would see me and find that things don't "click" then all you have to do is ask us to be set up with somebody ELSE for care. We have a number of psychiatric providers, and we work VERY hard at making access quick and painless.
Oh, AND...speaking of access, I can get you started within a month, often less. One of our therapists will gather some information first, but I'll see you soon after that to pick up where they left off. I will schedule you after that, but if you ever have an urgent need, you can usually also book an additional meeting within a week of your call.

I am credentialed with most commercial insurers & Medicare, but clients without insurance can see me for routine appts for $130 (my longer Intake is $200). I ask that my clients see me a minimum of every 90 days, but I may see you every 6 weeks for a while if we are making medication changes.

I don't do therapy myself, but DO like to collaborate with therapists when it's indicated and make myself available to them. My preference leans toward having my clients doing the therapies listed here, most of which are evidence-based, research-proven methods.
