Prospective Patients
A commitment to walk alongside you - one step at a time.
It all begins with a new day, a new sunrise - your decision that today is the day you would like to take charge of your mental health. I look forward in joining on this journey with you — together, we will figure it out together, one step at a time. If you are a prospective patient, please use the Secure Patient Portal below to request for an appointment.
Here is how to process works…

Prospective Patients
If you are a prospective patient, please use the Secure Patient Portal below to request for an appointment.
Please note that Elescend Psychiatry is typically restricted to patients between the ages of 18 to 60.

Next steps towards therapy
After sending a request, you will receive an invitation to set up a first consultation visit. Together, we will discuss the types of symptoms and problems you are experiencing and what treatment needs, values, priorities, and expectations you have regarding an evaluation and treatment options.
If I do not believe I can meet your needs and expectations, I will offer you additional referrals to other clinics/providers who may be a better fit. Elescend Psychiatry will also NOT bill for the visit.
Please note, the first consultation does not formally establish a patient-doctor relationship. We spend the first few visits determining if we are a good fit to establish a treatment relationship.

Wait List
If I am unable to offer you an appointment spot within your desired timeframe, you will be added to the clinic’s waitlist and I will offer you additional referrals for other psychiatrists or clinics.
If I am able to offer you a spot, you will then receive an invitation to set up your Patient Portal. This will allow for secure, encrypted messaging and appointment scheduling.
