Do you find yourself constantly second guessing your decisions, feeling anxious more often than not, or struggling to feel truly content in your own life? Maybe stress has taken over, relationships feel harder than they should, or you're quietly battling low self esteem and self doubt. If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone, and you don't have to figure it out by yourself.
I work with adults navigating anxiety, chronic stress, relationship difficulties, self esteem struggles, and that persistent feeling of not being at peace with themselves. My approach starts with genuinely getting to know you as a person, not just a set of symptoms. Before we talk about treatment plans, I want to understand your story, what's weighing on you, and what a better life looks like for you.
In addition to my work with adults, I specialize in treating ADHD, Autism, and Anxiety in children and teens.

Find the right psychiatrist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Colorado Springs
Finding psychiatrists in Colorado Springs starts with knowing what kind of mental health care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists provide talk therapy. Medication management often includes reviewing symptoms, discussing how care is going, and adjusting the care plan when clinically appropriate. If you’re looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or obsessive-compulsive disorder, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and approach before booking.
Colorado Springs offers a range of psychiatry options, with access across areas like Old North End, Manitou Springs, Widefield, and nearby communities. In-person care may be useful if you prefer a local office, while virtual appointments can make it easier to fit psychiatry into your schedule. Psychiatry visits for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. As you compare options, look at appointment availability, whether the psychiatrist is accepting new patients, and what each bio says about communication style and care structure.
Psychiatric care in Colorado Springs can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients, and nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans. You can check your specific plan details on Headway to confirm coverage in Colorado Springs. You can enter your insurance details, see estimated out-of-pocket costs, review psychiatrist bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
