What makes us different
We look at the whole picture before recommending anything, and we make sure you understand the plan.
We don't over-prescribe. No diagnosis or prescription without a proper evaluation.
Your symptoms, history, health, life and goals, not just a diagnosis.
Time to tell your whole story, and time to ask questions.
A real conversation every visit, with practical strategies alongside your medication care.
The diagnosis, the options, and the reasons behind each choice.
We don't double- or triple-book. The time on your calendar is yours.
How we work
Slow down, talk it through, get a clear plan.
If you've been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to start, you're not alone. We'll talk through what's actually going on, explain your options, and decide on a plan together.
Conditions we treat
Every condition links to its own page.
Worry that's hard to switch off, even when things seem fine.
Sudden waves of fear, and worry about the next one.
Dread around people, judgment or being noticed.
Everything looks fine on the outside. Inside, it isn't.
Evaluation and medication care, with referral for ERP therapy when needed.
More than sadness: exhaustion, numbness, losing interest. Including seasonal affective disorder.
A low mood that has gone on for years.
Running on empty, and wondering if it's more.
Careful, steady medication care for mania and depression.
Hypomania and depression that are often missed.
Ongoing ups and downs on the bipolar spectrum.
Intense emotions, shifting moods and relationships that feel unstable.
Medication care for trauma. We refer out for EMDR when needed.
When trauma was repeated or went on for a long time.
Mood changes tied to your cycle deserve real attention.
Mood changes in the years around menopause.
Depression and anxiety during pregnancy and after a baby.
Losing control of eating, often with shame or distress afterward.
Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder: eating very little, or very few foods.
When a big change or a loss knocks you off balance, including grief.
Sleep problems tied to a psychiatric condition.
Alongside a psychiatric condition, when outpatient care is safe.
Careful evaluation, non-stimulant options when appropriate, and care for what often comes with it.
Second opinions and re-evaluations when the picture isn't clear.

Adults 18 to 65 who are physically in New Jersey at the time of each visit. Most visits are by secure video, anywhere in New Jersey. Our office is in Mount Laurel, NJ, and in-person visits there are limited and by appointment only; ask our office.
We're psychiatric providers focused on medication, and our visits also include real therapeutic work: supportive therapy, psychoeducation, CBT-informed strategies, DBT skills such as distress tolerance and emotion regulation, sleep hygiene, and motivational interviewing. We don't offer standalone weekly therapy, but we're happy to help you find a therapist and will coordinate with them as part of your care.
Yes. Our appointments are longer, and we don't double- or triple-book. You'll have time to talk with your prescriber and ask about your medications and your diagnosis.

We don't prescribe stimulants or other Schedule II controlled medications. For other controlled medications, whether one is right for you is decided case by case by your provider after your evaluation. Federal rules for prescribing these through telehealth are changing, and some situations may require an in-person visit. If you take one now, please mention it in your intake packet or call our office, and we'll let you know what's possible.
Yes. If you'd like to come off a medication, your provider will talk with you about the benefits and risks. If it makes sense, they'll create a slow, careful plan to lower it safely. Sometimes, after an assessment, your provider may recommend staying on a medication and will explain why, but the decision is yours. Please don't stop a medication on your own; some can cause withdrawal symptoms or a return of symptoms if stopped suddenly.

If you're in crisis or thinking about harming yourself, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline), any time, day or night. In an emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
