Grades slipping. Mornings that take an hour. A teenager who used to talk and now does not. We evaluate, explain what we find, and plan treatment together.
A structured assessment for children and teens from age 6, including rating scales completed by you and, with your permission, the teachers who see your child all day. You get findings in writing and a plan you can take to the school.
Board-certified providers who treat ages 6 to 17 — attention, anxiety, mood, and the sleep problems that ride along with all three. The same clinician follows your child, so you are not re-explaining the history every visit.
Evaluation first, then a plan that usually pairs medication with supportive therapy in-house rather than sending you to find a therapist on your own.
Low and slow dosing, reviewed at every visit, with GeneSight pharmacogenomic testing when it would change the choice. Second opinions on an existing prescription are welcome.
You are in the room and in the plan. Nothing about your child's treatment gets decided without you understanding why.
Start with an appointmentYou request an appointment online or by phone. Our team confirms your insurance and sends intake forms and rating scales so the first visit is spent talking, not filling in paperwork.
A full psychiatric evaluation with you and your child. We ask about school, sleep, friendships, mood, and family history, and we review anything the school has already sent home.
We explain what we found in plain language and agree on a plan together — therapy, medication, or a combination. Follow-up visits keep it under review.
In-person appointments in Woodbridge, Fredericksburg, and Stafford. Our McLean practice is video only. Video visits are available anywhere in Virginia, which is often easier than pulling a teenager out of school for the afternoon.
