Why CLC Behavioral Health?

We provide psychiatric evaluation and medication management for adults experiencing a range of mental health concerns. Common conditions I treat include anxiety disorders, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, trauma-related conditions, stress-related concerns, and life-transition challenges. Treatment is individualized and based on a thorough assessment of symptoms, history, and personal goals to support emotional stability and overall well-being.

Psychiatric medication management involves a comprehensive evaluation of mental health symptoms, medical history, and current functioning to determine whether medication may be helpful. Appointments include education about treatment options, discussion of risks and benefits, ongoing symptom monitoring, and medication adjustments as needed. Medication management is collaborative and often works best when combined with therapy and supportive lifestyle strategies.

Medication may be helpful if symptoms are significantly impacting daily functioning, relationships, sleep, work, or overall quality of life. During your initial evaluation, we will review symptoms, previous treatments, personal preferences, and goals to determine the most appropriate plan. Medication is never a one-size-fits-all approach, and decisions are made collaboratively with careful monitoring over time.

Yes. I offer secure telehealth psychiatry appointments for adults located in the MA and RI. Telehealth allows patients to receive high-quality psychiatric care from the comfort of their home while maintaining privacy and convenience. Telehealth services include psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and follow-up visits.

To ensure a complete and accurate assessment, it is vital that the NP can see you for EVERY appointment. Also, for safety purposes, Telemedicine appointments cannot be carried out while patients are driving.

We treat a range of anxiety-related conditions, including generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), panic disorder, OCD, social anxiety, performance anxiety, and stress-related anxiety. Treatment is individualized and may include medication management, lifestyle recommendations, and collaboration with therapists when appropriate.

OCD is commonly treated using a combination of medication and therapy. Certain medications, such as SSRIs, may help reduce obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. Medication management is often most effective when combined with evidence-based therapy, such as exposure and response prevention (ERP), tailored to each individual’s needs. We can assist with connecting you with a therapist.

Adult ADHD is diagnosed through a comprehensive clinical evaluation that includes a detailed history of symptoms, assessment of current functioning, and review of developmental, social, and academic history. Symptoms must be present across multiple settings.
