Psychiatric Services
I provide structured psychiatric evaluation and ongoing treatment for adults in Texas and Colorado via secure telemedicine. My approach emphasizes diagnostic clarity, collaborative decision-making, and measurable functional improvement.
As a board-certified physician, my training includes medical school and residency-level specialization in psychiatry. Treatment decisions are grounded in medical evaluation, not symptom checklists alone.
Initial Psychiatric Evaluation
The initial evaluation is a comprehensive 60-minute session focused on understanding symptoms, history, prior treatment response, medical contributors, and treatment goals.
Diagnostic clarification is prioritized before initiating or modifying medication.
- Review of current symptoms
- Psychiatric and medical history
- Medication history and prior response
- Differential diagnosis discussion
- Collaborative treatment planning
- Discussion of risks, benefits, side effects and alternative approaches before treatment decisions
You leave the session with a clear treatment strategy and follow-up plan.
Medication Management
Follow-up appointments focus on treatment response, side-effect monitoring, functional improvement, and ongoing diagnostic clarification when needed.
Medication adjustments are guided by response patterns over time rather than rapid changes between visits
- Review of symptom response
- Side-effect assessment
- Dose adjustments when appropriate
- Discussion of alternative strategies if needed
- Ongoing assessment of whether medication remains necessary
Visits are structured, focused, and collaborative.
Therapy-informed Psychiatric Care
When appropriate, treatment integrates psychotherapy principles alongside medication management. This may include cognitive-behavioral strategies, behavioral activation, or supportive therapy elements within structured visits. Coordination with external therapists is encouraged when helpful.

Visits may incorporate structured problem-solving, cognitive-behavioral principles, and practical strategies to improve daily functioning.
