Navigating pregnancy and the postpartum period can bring a mix of joy, change, and emotional challenges. You deserve mental health support that is accessible, consistent, and centered around your unique needs. My practice provides personalized psychiatric care for individuals in the perinatal period, with a focus on building a trusting and supportive relationship that helps you feel understood, valued, and empowered.
Instead of traditional insurance-based care, I offer a cash pay model. This structure enables me to maintain a deliberately small caseload, ensuring you receive attentive, high-quality support without lengthy wait times or rushed appointments.
This model is especially supportive during the perinatal period, when unexpected worries or emotional shifts can arise. You will always know how to reach me and what to expect.
I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluation and treatment for a range of perinatal mental health needs, including anxiety, depression, mood disorders, birth-related trauma, and adjustment challenges. Treatment may include medication management, supportive psychotherapy, education, and collaborative care planning tailored to your goals and values. Your care will always be:
Insurance-driven care can place unnecessary barriers between providers and patients. By choosing a cash pay model, I can offer longer visits, more meaningful follow-ups, and accessible communication between appointments. This creates a more focused and connected experience that supports true healing.
