Do you have concerns regarding your child/teen's behavioral health? Have you noticed them having increased struggles with starting and finishing their school work? Have teachers brought this to your attention? Are you having difficulty/ feel anxious when it comes to parenting them because of their destructive behaviors? Are you are afraid of medication or have concerns that your child believes meds are the only answer to their current issues? Schedule an evaluation today so that you can begin to consider the many reasons for your child's struggles and discuss options that can improve their learning and/or behaviors.
My mission is to provide a conservative approach to treatment of attention, impulse issues, or emotional dysregulation and other behavioral concerns with medications. I am committed to working with every child, their parents, and their counselors. I enjoy educating families on alternative options or reevaluating medications that haven't proven beneficial.
Medication for mental health can be extremely helpful, but can also have many negative consequences with long-term use. I want every parent to understand when to, and not to medicate. I firmly stand against the use of chemicals that stifle a child's unique character or personality in order to enhance their likeability or to become a stronger student.
