Psychiatric medication provider in Chicago
Mental health is never one-size-fits-all. As a psychiatric medication provider in Chicago, I specialize in ADHD evaluation and treatment alongside anxiety, depression, and
perinatal mood disorders. Additionally, I’m dedicated to helping individuals build clarity, balance, and confidence in their mental health journey through thoughtful, collaborative medication management.
With a Perinatal Mental Health Certification (PMH-C) from Postpartum Support International, I provide informed, compassionate care to people navigating the emotional complexities of pregnancy, the postpartum period, and early parenthood. Moreover, I support those managing ADHD and mood symptoms during these life transitions with practical education and steady guidance.
My clinical approach is holistic, evidence-based, and collaborative, integrating medication management, education, and lifestyle strategies tailored to your unique needs. Whether you’re newly exploring ADHD symptoms, reassessing your current medications, or seeking balance amid anxiety and depression, I aim to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to make informed decisions.
Ultimately, I believe in meeting each client where they are—with openness, trust, and respect for their lived experience. Together, we’ll develop a clear treatment plan that aligns with your goals, values, and daily realities.
