Attention Disorders

ADHD and disorders of attention are remarkably complex and manifest differently across the lifespan. The pharmacological management of ADHD is nuanced and complex. Many people with attentional weaknesses also benefit from executive function coaching so we partner with Connect To Learn Tutors.

Mood Disorders

The scientific understanding of mood disorders continues to evolve. While some people fall clearly into one diagnostic category or another, many people have mood symptoms that are harder to categorize. We bring over 40 years of combined experience to this complex area of diagnosis and treatment.

Anxiety Disorders

Anxiety disorders include Panic Disorder, Generalized Anxiety, Social Anxiety, and Separation Anxiety. Additionally, many people experience impairing anxiety during times of stress and transition. There is a growing understanding that anxiety disorders can be profoundly disruptive to development and growth.  

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

Studies of OCD have revealed it to be distinct from other anxiety disorders. Distinguishing OCD from other conditions can be challenging, and the best treatments for OCD are based on a nuanced understanding of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy principles. 

Traumatic Stress Disorders

Trauma is, unfortunately, a common experience. The short and long-term impacts of trauma can vary widely, and often amplifies other psychiatric conditions. Our approach to all psychiatric problems, including Post-Traumatic Stress syndromes, is informed by the emerging sciences of trauma and resilience and also strives to be holistic and humanistic.

Stage of Life Challenges

People often experience unexpected distress when faced with major life transitions. These can include leaving home for college, moving to a new city, entering or exiting romantic relationships, marriage, family formation, divorce, or coping with a chronic illness. We find that psychotherapy can be enormously helpful in navigating these transitions into the next stage of your life’s trajectory.

Wellness Concerns

Many of us have the desire to become healthier but encounter conscious or unconscious obstacles to sustainable change. You may be motivated to understand how your eating habits impact your state of mind, or you may be navigating a chronic illness, or you may be trying to improve your current state of health and well-being. We offer a holistic and scientifically informed approach to these questions that relies on our medical training, our knowledge of how psychotherapy helps with habit formation and maintenance, and our collaboration with experts in food and nutrition.
