Conditions We Treat
We provide treatment for a variety of conditions. We recognize that the best way to approach self-care and well-being is to understand and treat the underlying causes of distress. We also acknowledge that mental health wellness is a journey and can’t be treated overnight. That’s why we pride ourselves in taking the time to understand your individual needs so that we may treat you holistically. Read about the conditions we treat below.

PTSD

Sometimes life is not the same after trauma. We are all vulnerable, fragile beings and unwanted experiences can and will happen to all of us. We will emphasize healing through meaning, helping you enhance your own resilience as some aspects of our lives won’t ever be the same again. We will focus on restructuring these memories, managing current relationships, social redefinition, circadian disruption, and finding meaning.

Elderly mental health patient

Elderly Mental Health

Age causes us to reorder life priorities, to live life more intensely and authentically. Telepsychiatry is ideal for older individuals struggling with mobility and accessibility. We can provide treatment for mood disorders, coping with loss and finding meaning, medication review or simplification, or a second opinion.

Young Adult/College students

Telepsychiatry is ideal for college students who need to move frequently and may therefore deal with having to see numerous psychiatrists. Depression is a product of stressors such as pressure to perform in school, pressure to fit in socially, having a limited income, being isolated and overburdening one’s self with extra-curricular activities.

Fatigue

Fatigue, or low energy, can be caused by a variety of factors: mood, poor sleep, obstructive sleep apnea, low vitamin levels (vitamin D, vitamin B1, B6, B12, folate), low blood counts, or heart arrhythmias. It requires a very comprehensive evaluation to determine the cause, which is usually multifactorial.

Schizophrenia

Schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, and other psychotic disorders can be treated with both medications and cognitive therapy to help individuals become more comfortable with various symptoms of psychosis. Hallucinations are in fact a surprisingly common symptom for most individuals, even those who never meet criteria for schizophrenia. For example, sometimes hallucinations can be experienced around the time of sleep, or with sleep deprivation, substance use, withdrawal from substances, or grief.

Chronic Pain
