With over two decades of experience in adult psychiatry, I provide comprehensive, physician-direct care focused on diagnostic clarity and long-term stability. Initial evaluations are 90 minutes, allowing time for careful assessment and patient education. This is a direct-pay practice (insurance is not accepted), structured to support thoughtful, individualized treatment without unnecessary frequency or administrative barriers.


Compensation Fatigue
Many high-functioning adults have built elaborate systems to manage distraction (compensation).
They work longer hours. They double-check everything. They rely on urgency to activate focus.
Compensation can sustain success. It is rarely sustainable indefinitely.
Reducing regulatory strain often reduces burnout.
