Conditions We Treat

If medication is not clearly indicated, we will say so. Our goal is always to use the lowest effective intervention, not to prescribe unnecessarily. We provide psychiatric evaluation and medication management for children and teens experiencing:

Anxiety disorders
Depression and mood-related concerns
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)
Trauma- and stress-related symptoms, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
Bipolar II disorder and mood instability
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
Sleep difficulties
Adjustment-related concerns and life transitions
