Great to meet you!

Hello, I am Dr. Forsyth. I have been practicing psychiatry for 31 years in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I offer services to all of Idaho and Easten Washington. I value a balanced approach to care, integrating both medication management and psychotherapeutic interventions to meet each person's individual needs. I have experience treating mood disorders, anxiety disorders, PTSD, OCD, and psychotic disorders.

My approach to therapy

I consider myself a guide for my clients, using a structured, collaborative, evidence-based, and individualized approach. My goal is to help clients achieve their objectives through healthy and sustainable strategies that fit their unique circumstances.

What you can expect from me

During the initial session, I will spend time gathering detailed information about your goals, background, life experiences, and any medical conditions that may be relevant. I review my findings, explain my reasoning, and present options that you can choose from. Together, we will work toward a happier and healthier life, using approaches that are right for you.
