Who you're referring to

Twenty years in the corners of healthcare where it's hardest to get seen.

Renee's path to psychiatry runs through schools, crisis centers, and community mental health — nearly two decades of showing up for kids, teens, and families in the most underserved parts of the system. That background shows in the work: calm with high acuity, unhurried with complexity, and comfortable with the patients other practices hesitate to take.

Care is trauma-focused, person-centered, and collaborative — motivational interviewing and compassion-focused approaches, with medication only when it actually makes sense. Every plan starts with a thorough evaluation and keeps adjusting until it's working, because "let's just try this and see" isn't good enough.

The practice is LGBTQ+ affirming and judgment-free, and families are always welcome in the room.

"No clipboard distance. No cookie-cutter care. Just real, collaborative, judgment-free appointments where your story actually matters."

How referrals work

Three steps, no gatekeeping.

STEP ONE

Send them over

Give the family the website for instant online booking, or call, email, or fax records directly. No referral form required — a warm handoff is plenty.

STEP TWO

Thorough evaluation

Every patient starts with a real, unhurried evaluation — not a 15-minute box. Medication management and supportive therapy follow when they actually make sense, adjusted until it's working.

STEP THREE

The loop closes

With family consent, evaluation summaries and updates come back to you — so referrals never disappear into a void, and care stays coordinated with therapists, pediatricians, and school teams.
