Learn More about Amber and Holistic Psychiatry

---

With a background in holistic health, I emphasize the positive impact of behavioral, emotional, spiritual, and physical habits on mental health and overall well-being. To fully benefit from my skill set, education, and experience, patients should embrace a comprehensive approach to their well-being and mental health. 

Services include combinations of medication management, evaluation, adjustments to diet, exercise, and supplements, laboratory test review, and interventions such as talk therapy, breath work, sound therapy, and more. 

As a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, I seek to weave into practice the ability to address and discover underlying factors that can contribute to and exacerbate the patient's current state of dis(ease). With that, time is our most significant gift, and time is what allows our partnership to make your mental health a priority.  

All initial visits begin with an in-person assessment. As our partnership develops, the choice to do Tele-Visits for stable patients can be discussed. Safety is the number one priority. Please feel free to discuss the option of Tele-Visits and how they can support your journey in gaining confidence in your mental health. 

In a professional view, many controlled substances have long-term effects that cause concern. If you need maintenance for a controlled substance, please fill out the prescreening tool at the end of this page to ensure we are a good fit and that our partnership aligns with your needs. 

If you are not currently on a controlled substance but believe you may benefit from such medication, please note that our plan of care includes a "low and slow" approach, holistic behavior modification, and root cause investigation.

Medication in this class includes all stimulants, all benzodiazepines, and some sleep aids. Deciding to use these medications should be in full awareness of the side effects and long-term difficulties and with a plan to decrease and remove the medication where possible. 

 At Holistic Psychiatry, LLC, we prioritize a direct and personal approach to care.
