FAQs
If anything is missing please reach out directly and we will be glad to answer.
-
A reproductive psychiatrist evaluates and treats conditions across the reproductive lifespan, which often have a hormonal component. This includes premenstrual syndromes, perinatal and postpartum conditions, and perimenopausal challenges.
-
A holistic psychiatrist focuses on mental well-being and wellness rather than just illness. It means looking at the entire person - the biological, genetic, lifestyle, social, and psychological factors - when thinking about what might be contributing to symptoms and using that kind of holistic approach when formulating a treatment plan. This can include medication, botanicals and supplements, psychotherapy, mindfulness approaches, nutrition, physical activity, sleep interventions, acupuncture, massage, and more.
-
The first step is to book a free phone consultation, which will last 15 minutes. During this time, I will hear from you details of why you are reaching out and some background information, which will help determine if my services would be the best fit for you. If your health needs would be best served by a different provider, I can provide suggestions.
Please visit the Contact Me page to schedule the free consult.
-
Yes. I’m glad that you have already established a therapeutic relationship. I will gladly work with your current therapist to ensure comprehensive and collaborative care. In fact, because of the value I believe psychotherapy adds to a treatment plan, if you are not seeing me in psychotherapy I strongly request that you have an outside therapist with whom you are working.
-
No. We will work together to decide if medications would be a helpful part of your treatment plan. However, for many patients, psychotherapy and complimentary treatment can be very effective. There is good research on the success of psychotherapy and even how it changes our brain chemistry.
-
My goal is to provide personalized care without dictation of treatment by an insurance company or administrator. Therefore, at this time, I do not accept any insurance plans.
If you have a PPO plan, you may be eligible for reimbursement from your insurance company for out of network services. If so, I am happy to provide a monthly invoice (AKA superbill) to submit. I recommend you contact your insurance company and check. Here are several questions to consider asking:
** Do I have an annual deductive for outpatient mental health services with a psychiatrist?
** How much is my co-pay or co-insurance per visit?
** How many visits do I have annually?
** Are there limitations on the conditions/diagnoses that can be reimbursed?
You can also consider using your FSA (Flexible Savings Account) for reimbursement of service fees.

On this call, we’ll review your current state, prior medical history, a brief overview of my services, and options moving forward. If I do not think that my practice is the best fit, I am happy to provide referral alternatives.
Please note: In order to provide a more customized and best standard of care, our practice is out-of-network.
