Reproductive Psychiatry in San Antonio
I am a reproductive psychiatrist who grew up in Austin and the Texas Hill Country, and I now divide my time between Houston and the Hill Country. Because I spend so much of my time in the Hill Country, I am excited to now be collaborating with the lovely ladies at Bird and Branch Therapy to offer in-person visits in San Antonio through their beautiful offices in Alamo Heights.
If you are pregnant, postpartum, navigating the transition into perimenopause, or struggling with mood changes tied to your menstrual cycle, you deserve care from a physician who understands the unique biology, hormone shifts, reproductive needs and experiences of women.
I see patients in person in San Antonio on select Fridays. For women who are unable to come in person or find it more convenient, telehealth appointments are offered throughout the week.
The offices are located above the cake bakery on Broadway, with easy surface parking right outside.
What to Expect
My practice is “cash-pay”, which means that I do not take any insurance. Many women find that the time, attention, responsiveness, and level of expertise they receive in this model of care is well worth the investment.
Initial consultations are 90 minutes and allow time for a thorough psychiatric history, a review of any medications or treatments you have tried, and a collaborative discussion of your goals for treatment. During this visit I ask heaps of questions so that I can best understand how I might be helpful. As we wrap up the visit we will discuss treatment options for you and the risks and benefits for you of those options; you get to decide whether you want to go forward with starting treatment and if it feels like a good fit for us to work together. Follow up visits are 30 minutes; we will discuss frequency of these visits during our initial consultation, but they will be at a minimum of every 3 months and more frequent if we are starting new medication or adjusting doses.
Outside of our visits I focus on collaborating with other folks you’re in treatment with, including therapists, Ob/Gyns, and primary care doctors, and on being responsive to calls and questions from my patients.
