I am well-versed in the medications that are on the market for various disorders such as bi-polar to panic attacks and major depression. I will help you find the right psychopharmacologist if you wish to go that route. Or, you and I will hammer away, sans medication. Further still, we can incorporate a treatment plan that utilizes both therapy and medicine.
