I am a Doctoral trained MEDICAL PA practicing in psychiatry and mental wellness for the past 22 years. I specialize in treating a variety of disorders that stem from low neurotransmitter levels, namely serotonin and dopamine. At times I prescribe commonly used anti-depressants and anti-anxiety agents that can be useful for short or long term treatment, depending on the situation and need.
However, I look at the whole body and many times, naturally restoring the normal function of the brain resolves the need for prescription medication. These options have the advantage of being useful with limiting the downside of big drug companies' prescription medication. Total symptom remission, not just improvement in current symptoms, is our treatment goal.

Therapy FAQs
Report
Not at all. People who ask for help know when they need it and have the ability to reach out. Everyone needs help now and then. You already have some strengths that you've used before, that for whatever reason isn't working right now. Perhaps this problem feels overwhelming and is making it difficult to access your past strengths.
Medication Information
Report
Medications can play a role in treating several mental disorders and conditions. Treatment may also include psychotherapy (also called "talk therapy") and brain stimulation therapies (less common). In some cases, psychotherapy alone may be the best treatment option. Choosing the right treatment plan should be based on a person's individual needs and medical situation, and under a mental health professional's care.
Depression Concerns
Report
Depression (major depressive disorder or clinical depression) is a common but serious mood disorder. It causes severe symptoms that affect how you feel, think, and handle daily activities, such as sleeping, eating, or working. To be diagnosed with depression, the symptoms must be present for at least two weeks.
Panic and General Anxiety
Report
Occasional anxiety is a normal part of life. You might feel anxious when faced with a problem at work, before taking a test, or making an important decision. But anxiety disorders involve more than temporary worry or fear. For a person with an anxiety disorder, the anxiety does not go away and can get worse over time.
