Psychiatric Evaluation for Adults
Professional Mental Health Assessments for Adults
As a Board-Certified adult psychiatrist with over 25 years of experience, I offer comprehensive psychiatric evaluations for individuals struggling with a variety of mental health challenges. Whether you are suffering from depression, anxiety, ADHD, or PTSD, the first step to healing is understanding your unique story.
Psychiatric evaluations help determine an accurate diagnosis and guide treatment planning. During our initial session, I take the time to understand your symptoms, life history, and personal goals. I ask targeted questions to uncover patterns and challenges and create a safe space for you to share openly.
I specialize in evaluating conditions including:
-
Depression and other mood disorders
-
Anxiety disorders and panic attacks
-
Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
-
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
-
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
-
Bipolar Disorder
My initial evaluations are conducted through an easy-to access secure video platform, providing convenient access from the comfort of your home. Since this is a solo and not group practice, you will receive personalized care every step of the way. You won’t be passed between practitioners — I handle your evaluation, treatment plan, and follow-up care directly.
Accessible, compassionate, and timely, my psychiatric evaluations are designed to help you feel seen, heard, and supported. Let’s begin your journey to emotional wellness.
