My approach to therapy

We provide care for the entire family with nurse practitioner specialists in family-focused psychiatric mental healthcare across the lifespan for adults, pediatric, and adolescent mental healthcare. We integrate normal behavior and development, primary care wellness, and mental healthcare to promote optimal academic, family, and social functioning.

We diagnose and treat ADHD, social anxiety and phobias, sleep issues, depression, ASD, OCD, learning disabilities, and eating disorders, as well as stress-related disorders.

Early diagnosis of learning and focusing disorders can help you advocate for services in school.

We have expertise in lifestyle coaching for problem behaviors and healthy weight control.

We combine pharmacology and behavior change strategies.
