While I endeavor to treat your concerns properly, it is important to remember that medications used in mental/behavioral health are not the same as in many other medical conditions. Each person will respond to a medication differently and the doses must be tapered up and down to truly assess efficacy. Many times it may take more than one medication to treat a condition.

I avoid the use of controlled substances whenever possible. Additionally, each state has different DEA requirements and application processes.

I will try to provide return calls within 24-48 hours. You can also use the patient portal, once established with my practice, to communicate.

Currently, I am only accepting adult and limited adolescent, clients. I will discuss your needs when we speak, prior to booking.

At this time I am credentialed with Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts, Carelon, Cigna, and Optum.
Other carriers are pending but can take several months to process. I also see cash clients. Many prefer to work on a cash-pay basis rather than using their insurance. 

I can accept patients in Florida, Montana, and Colorado, and New York. Cash and insurance options vary per state. Connecticut may be added, in the future if need arises.

Many medications can have major side effects. While I will try to cover side effects at the time of prescribing, I always recommend verifying with your pharmacist. If you note any untoward effects, from medication, please contact me. If you encounter a severe reaction, call 911.

If at any time you feel like harming yourself, or are having an emotional crisis, contact the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988 (or call 911).
