At NowPsych in Boulder, Colorado, I strive to make the process welcoming, thoughtful, and collaborative. My goal is to understand you as a whole person—not just a set of symptoms—and to create a treatment plan that fits your unique needs.
A Warm and Thoughtful First Meeting
During your first appointment, I spend time listening deeply. Rather than rushing into a diagnosis or immediately prescribing medication, I ask clarifying questions so I can understand your history, current struggles, and goals for treatment.
This process allows us to let the full picture of your mental health story evolve naturally over time, ensuring that we don’t jump to conclusions. Many patients tell me that this approach feels different—more like a conversation than an interview.
A Whole-Person Approach
At NowPsych, I use a holistic model of care. This means we look at more than just symptoms—we explore the connections between your mind, body, and daily life.
Some of the tools and strategies we may discuss include:
- Genetic testing with Genomind: This can help us understand how your body may respond to certain medications, allowing for more personalized and effective treatment choices.
- Nutrition and lifestyle guidance: I provide direct advice on ways that diet, exercise, sleep, and stress management can improve your mental health.
- Therapeutic support: As a trained therapist with a psychoanalytic approach, I help you explore deeper patterns and root causes behind your struggles, not just the surface-level symptoms.
- Medication management: If medication is helpful, I focus on prescribing the smallest effective dose to reduce symptoms, while working with you on long-term strategies for lasting improvement.
Ongoing Support and Connection
Healing doesn’t stop when the appointment ends. With the AdvancedMD patient portal, you’ll have an easy way to stay connected between visits—whether you need to ask a question, request a refill, or share an update. This ongoing communication helps us adjust your treatment plan as life unfolds.
