“Meet the client where they’re at” is my guiding principle. Trauma is complex, but when we talk about it, we begin to take our lives back, no matter what part of our journey we’re living. I imagine you’re scrolling through therapists, glancing at the different faces, and now you’re feeling into this therapist. You feel vulnerable and if you’re honest- nervous, scared, and anxious. How can I trust a person I’ve never met with the pain I’ve never spoken about? You may feel shame, and you made an unspoken agreement with yourself to never speak of what happened to you. Contacting a therapist is an act of courage. I applaud you.

I enjoy the work I do and gain so much satisfaction from helping people recover the wellness that still lives on in them. That wellness may be hidden by stressors of daily living or trauma. I find delight in helping folks identify the strengths and resiliencies that each human being possesses. My favorite part of the work I do is in the developing of the therapeutic relationship. I provide a nonjudgmental, safe environment where people can feel free and safe to express themselves. I work with Individuals, Veterans, Service Members and their families, Seniors and Members of the LGBTQ community.

From medication management and psychological testing, to play groups designed to accommodate children with ADHD and behavioral or learning disabilities, ADHD.
ADHD has become a widely recognized challenge that can be treated medically as well as non-medically. Depending on the child or adult and their specific circumstances and needs, we can help. To assess and diagnose, we have experienced psychiatrists and psychologists on staff. Once diagnosed, if medication is warranted as a part of the treatment plan, the psychiatrist would continue in his/her role as the prescribing physician. He/she would communicate with the other clinicians in the center who, as part of the treatment team, would have non-medical roles in the effective treatment of ADHD and its associated conditions.

Medication Management Therapists
What are the most effective ways to manage medications?
One of the most effective ways a patient can manage their medications is to keep a list of each drug and dosage they take. Such a list can be helpful in keeping to their schedule and can also be something they bring to their psychiatrist or other physician so that the healthcare provider has a clear picture of what they’re taking and in what quantity. Using a pill organizer can be useful for memory and organization. Patients should discuss their medications and their effects at every appointment.
What are the risks if medications are not managed properly?
A suboptimal approach to medication management can lead to potentially harmful health outcomes. Most psychiatric drugs have side effects, and if a patient is not aware of them, they may seek additional medical help or over the counter or prescription drugs to treat the side effects, which may have its own side effects, a process called “prescription cascade.” Another risk to disorganization is that a psychiatrist without full knowledge of a patient’s regimen could prescribe a medication that should not be mixed with a patient’s existing drugs.
What’s the best way to encourage someone to get help managing their medications?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing medication management as a tool for improving their life and avoiding dangerous side effects. Offering specific examples of an individual’s failure to properly manage their medication regimen should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to break management down into parts, and there are several apps that can be used to organize which drugs are ingested, when they need to be refilled, and how they should be stored.
Are there natural treatments that can replace medications?
While there are many medications that can be vital to mental health, there are some natural lifestyle changes that can help reduce the need for drugs. Regular exercise, good sleep habits, a healthy diet, and therapy can all go a long way in symptom relief. Psychiatric medications typically treat symptoms but do not necessarily treat the cause of the condition. Many clinicians consider medications an adjunct to treatment rather than a treatment in and of itself.
