I provide psychiatric evaluation and treatment for adults experiencing substance use disorders, including alcohol, opioid, stimulant, and other substance-related problems. Treatment may include medication-assisted treatment when clinically appropriate, along with psychiatric medication management and ongoing support.
A Personalized Approach to Recovery
Recovery looks different for each person. Treatment is individualized based on the type and severity of substance use, psychiatric symptoms, medical history, previous treatment experiences, and personal goals. The focus is on helping patients achieve greater stability and make meaningful, sustainable changes.
Medication Treatment for Addiction
Treatment may also include ongoing monitoring of cravings, withdrawal symptoms, mood, anxiety, sleep, and medication response. When appropriate, care can be coordinated with therapists, primary care providers, or other treatment programs to support long-term recovery.
