Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation (Telehealth + In-Person)
A careful, 90-minute evaluation to understand what’s going on—and create a plan you can trust. Telehealth across Texas & Colorado; in-person visits in Houston & Katy.
What to expect in your 90-minute evaluation
Your first visit is unhurried and collaborative. We’ll review your concerns, history, medications, medical conditions, sleep, nutrition, and goals. We’ll clarify diagnosis, discuss treatment options (medications, psychotherapy, lifestyle), and map out next steps. You’ll leave with a clear, written plan.
During the visit we typically cover:
- Current symptoms, triggers, and timeline
- Relevant medical history, labs, and prior treatments
- Strengths, supports, and safety
- Shared decision-making on treatment options
Follow-ups are typically 45-60 minutes and focus on what’s changing, what’s working, and what to adjust.
Conditions we evaluate and treat
- Anxiety disorders
- Depressive disorders
- Bipolar disorders
- PTSD / trauma-related symptoms
- Obsessive–Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
- Psychotic Disorders
We currently do not offer ADHD evaluation or stimulant management. If that’s your main need, we’re happy to share referral options.
Medication management + psychotherapy

A thoughtful, safety-first prescribing approach
We practice conservative, evidence-based prescribing. We do not initiate Schedule II stimulants or start new benzodiazepines. When medications are used, we favor options with strong benefit-risk profiles and clear monitoring.
