Dr. Veronica Faller

I am a double board-certified, Harvard-trained physician with specialties in Adult Psychiatry and Child/Adolescent Psychiatry.

I specialize in working with medical professionals and their family members who may be struggling with their mental health. I have particular expertise in ADHD, autism, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, and trauma.

If you are looking for a kind, warmhearted doctor who can give you options to explore therapy and/or medication, we could be a good fit!

Our first session will involve collecting information about your or your child's past medical history, family history, developmental history, prior psychiatric treatment and medication trials, and current medications. We will consider your goals for treatment and come up with a treatment plan. All visits are currently conducted via telemedicine, using a HIPAA secure video-conferencing platform. Prescriptions, if needed, will be sent securely and electronically directly to a pharmacy of your choice.

Services provided:

• Consultations and second opinions (diagnostic impressions and treatment recommendations, including for autism spectrum disorder for all ages and review of prior neuropsychological testing)
• Medication management, including safe deprescribing of medications and minimizing unwanted side effects
• Psychodynamic psychotherapy
• Skills-based therapy approaches (including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy techniques)
• Trauma-informed care approaches (including Sensory Motor Arousal Regulation Treatment and the Attachment, Regulation, Competency framework)
• Parent guidance
• Assistance with initiating and/or updating 504 plans and Individualized Education Plans (IEP)
• Consultations to schools

If I am out-of-network with your insurer, I can provide a superbill which you can submit for reimbursement.
