I am a board-certified psychiatrist and Diplomate of the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. For me, being a physician is more than a profession—it is a vocation to help indviduals flourish. My practice is devoted to students and young adults seeking thoughtful, individualized psychiatric care that extends beyond symptom relief. I provide comprehensive evaluations that consider medical, nutritional, lifestyle, and psychological factors—including laboratory testing when clinically appropriate—to identify the contributors to emotional and cognitive health. I also specialize in evidence-based de-prescribing for patients who wish to reduce or discontinue psychiatric medications for anxiety, attention difficulties, or substance use disorders. My approach is guided by precision, humility, and restraint: using the least intensive intervention necessary while drawing upon the full breadth of evidence-based medicine. Depending on each patient's needs and goals, I integrate psychotherapy, nutrition, lifestyle medicine, exercise, targeted supplementation, and, when appropriate, carefully selected medications into a personalized treatment plan. In addition to my clinical work, I have presented internationally on psychiatric deprescribing and medical ethics. My work has been recognized with awards from the American Psychiatric Association, the International Association for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Allied Professions, the American Psychoanalytic Association, and other leading professional organizations. I am the Founder & Medical Director of Verigrate Health. I am licensed to serve patients in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Lousiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington, Washington, D.C., and Wisconsin.
I am a License Professional Counselor and a Substance Abuse Counselor who has been practicing for over 27 years. I have vast experience in working with both mental health and addiction in a variety of settings. I like to work with my clients to help them improve their emotional health and relationships with others. I will help you gain insight and process your presenting problems and teach you healthy coping skills to manage your emotions, behaviors and thoughts using approaches that are tailored to you. I use a client centered approach to meet you where you are at and help you move to where you want to be.
I bring over 20 years of experience working with children, teens, adults, couples, and families, supporting clients ages 5 and up across a range of settings including outpatient care, adolescent dual-diagnosis day treatment, and adult residential treatment. I work with individuals and families navigating anxiety, depression, anger management, parenting challenges, ADHD, relationship concerns, and substance use. I also hold a substance use specialty attached to my license, which allows me to support clients with co-occurring mental health and substance-related concerns in a grounded, practical way. My goal is to meet you where you are and help you move forward with clarity, support, and realistic tools for change.
Se habla Español! If you're a burnt out parent, an over thinker, consistently getting in your own way, unable to create new habits, a worrywart, someone who experiences big feelings, or someone with an unmanageable inner critic... You can keep coping the way you are OR we can upgrade the system! Our lively, challenging, encouraging providers at ElevateEQ Health can't change who your boss or manager is and they can't tell your in-laws to stop being critical or judgmental. However, they CAN help you identify the goals, words, boundaries, and actions you can use to communicate with others and improve your life experience.
The transition to undergraduate or graduate school can be a very vulnerable time, and many experience depression, anxiety, and anger along the way. It can be challenging to reach out for support and get connected, but it doesn’t have to be. I am honored to support and hold space for those struggling during these transitions. I have experience and interest in relationship issues, adjustment to life transitions, issues with family of origin, self-esteem, anxiety, depression, neurodivergence, and other mood concerns. I have specialized training in perinatal mental health, sexual health, self-compassion, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I strive to use a non-judgmental, empathetic, and validating stance to help clients heal and grow, incorporating cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and self-compassion. Please reach out if you feel we may be a good fit!

I work with folks looking to understand their own identity. Whether that be in relation to themself or others. Balancing life as an emerging adult while being a college student can be overwhelming. I specialize in working with folks who are queer, trans, gender expansive, and neurodivergent. I am trained in a trauma therapy called EMDR, which can help people who have experienced traumatic events to find healing. I support folks in finding skills for regulating their emotions, sitting in the discomfort of hard feelings, and being more present in their day to day life.
It’s hard to be a human, but we don’t have to do it alone. Holding an LPC license and a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling, Bailey is a relational therapist who leads with the idea of, ‘if it’s important to you, it’s important’. Therapy is not a one size fits all approach, and Bailey tailors her work to meet you where you are, walk alongside you and build genuine, authentic, real, therapeutic relationships. Throughout her journey in the field, Bailey is grounded in her experience working in mental health case management, teaching at Indiana University, facilitating programs at the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life and incorporates her experience in the way she seeks to understand, explore, challenge and recognize areas of stress and also resilience that her clients navigate. Using a curated blend of EMDR, ACT, CBT, polyvagal and relational therapy, Bailey specializes in work with young adults, college students, young women, educators/teachers and aspiring therapists/helping professionals to process identity building, boundary setting, relationship dynamics, trauma, anxiety, depression and adjustment to life transitions. Many things can be true at the same time, and Bailey is ready to walk with you to hold life’s many feelings. Bailey believes that therapy is not a ‘one size fits all' approach. She recognizes that the individual is the expert in their own life, and therefore, her approach is to walk alongside each person to provide a validating, empathic and nonjudgmental space for care. With that, Bailey tailors each session to the individual’s goals while leaning into various modalities and training that may include: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy(CBT), Polyvagal Therapy, and/or Mindfulness and Person Centered therapy. Life and our experiences are all relative, and Bailey values the idea of, ‘if it's important to you, it's important’. Therefore, it is vital to hold space to work through life’s various coexisting moving parts in support of our overall wellness.

I work with individuals who are managing multiple responsibilities and expectations but feel like they’re quietly falling apart under the pressure to hold everything together.

Brene Brown says that shame can only exist in a vacuum – real healing comes from sharing, connecting, and being met with total acceptance towards whatever is causing you pain or holding you back. Whatever brings you to seek therapy, I’ll meet you there with warmth, compassion, laughter, and a promise to see the you who exists beyond the struggles and pain that have brought you to this point. My clients often come to work with me when they’re looking to learn how to navigate times of transition, find ways to cope, and bring joy and purpose back to their lives. My ultimate goal is to meet you right where you are and direct our therapeutic work towards exactly what your healing needs. You might see traces of Acceptance & Commitment therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Mindfulness, Trauma-Informed Care and good old empathy & connection within our sessions. Together, we’ll find a balance that lights you up – we’ll probably laugh, sometimes cry, maybe cuss a little bit (if that’s your thing) – but ultimately together, we’ll name what’s keeping you stuck, make meaning of the hard, and move forward towards the good. I specialize in supporting: • College students • People in their 20s, 30s, and 40s • Older adolescents • Times of transition & adjustment disorder • LGBT & Gender-affirming care • Anxiety and depression • Self-esteem • Pregnancy, Prenatal & Postnatal • Young parents
