Services Offered

Comprehensive psychiatric evaluations with a focus on accurate diagnostics to address the  underlying condition, rather than treating superficial and nonspecific symptoms.

Psychiatric medications will be prescribed when indicated, with a focus on reducing polypharmacy and de-prescribing unnecesary and potentially harmful medication regimens. Our focus is on "cleaning up" excessive medication regimens, rather than continually adding medication after medication as occurs all too often in the psychiatric field. 

When indicated, supportive psychotherapy is integrated into medication management appointments. This therapy focuses on motivational interviewing, psychoeducation, distress tolerance and other DBT skills, interpersonal effectiveness, and brief cognitive-behavioral therapy. 

We reserve a block of time each week for crisis appointments, with the goal of mitigating escalating symptoms BEFORE a true crisis develops, and reducing the need to seek a higher level of care. Scheduling these appointments is limited to 48 hours prior to the appointment time. Crisis appointment times may vary on a weekly basis. 

We offer flexible scheduling options to accomodate the needs of working professionals and students who may have difficulty attending mid-day appointments. For this reason, we offer limited evening and weekend appointments as scheduling permits. 

We offer both in-person care at our office in Richmond's West End as well as secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth options for individuals throughout Virginia.
