THERAPEUTIC APPROACH
At Crescent Psychiatry, I believe our work together should be collaborative and reflective. I believe symptoms should be understood in the context of both past and present experiences and that our time together should ultimately help you live your life more freely and fully. I approach mental health treatment with a genuine interest in getting to know each patient and taking the time to learn about their values, relationships, struggles, and conflicts.
​
If we decide to work together, you will find that I am a warm, attentive, and empathic psychiatrist who believes that treatment should be individualized and, depending on the presenting problem, can consist of any combination of medication and/or psychotherapy. Together, we will find a treatment plan that caters to your specific needs.

HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices
Do you accept insurance?
No. We do not accept insurance, but I can provide a superbill upon request if you'd like to see out-of-network reimbursement from your insurance provider.
​
Do you offer in-office and virtual appointments?
Yes. We offer secure, HIPPA-compliant telepsychiatry appointments for adults located in the state of Georgia. We also offer in-office appointments one day a week.
How is your private practice different from large, corporate mental health clinics?
As a solo practitioner, I offer highly personalized, consistent, and relationship-based care that can be hard to find in larger, corporate-owned practices.
​
In many corporate-owned practices, care is fragmented, clinicians may rotate, and the focus can shift toward volume and efficiency over depth and continuity. We are a small, intentionally desined practice where you work directly with me - from the first phone call through ongoing treatment.
​
This means:
- You won't be passed between providers
- You'll receive thoughtful, individualized attention
- Our work together is guided by a trusting, rewarding relationship built over time.
