Assessment

Understanding a client’s needs takes time, care, and dedication. At Psychiatric & Psychological Specialties, we invest in understanding our clients, utilizing sensitive screening and in-depth interviews for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment planning.

Counseling

Through counseling, our clients’ pinpoint aspects of their lives they desire to transform, fostering enhanced emotional well-being and satisfaction. Within a secure, inviting, and private environment, our clinicians collaborate with the client to explore thoughts and emotions, crafting approaches for healing and personal development.

 

Medication

While not always essential, medication can enhance emotional well-being and functionality for certain individuals. Through a comprehensive blend of medical and psychological assessments, along with a clinical discussion, we determine if pharmacological intervention is suitable.

“I cannot recommend Psychiatric & Psychological Specialties enough. Dr. V and Patrick Byrnes have been instrumental in guiding me through individual and couples therapy, respectively, while Dr. Kachman and the team have provided invaluable psychiatric support.

Their integrative approach has equipped me with a vast array of tools to tackle some deep-rooted challenges I've been faced with throughout my life. What sets this practice apart is their holistic perspective, addressing not just the symptoms but also the underlying cultural influences.

As a first-generation American, Dr. V's deep cultural awareness and expertise has been immensely insightful in understanding how my background shapes my relationships with others and with myself. Thanks to this team, I've witnessed profound progress in my personal growth, relationships, and marriage. My husband is also working with another practitioner and has found incredible growth in only a matter of months. If you're seeking a transformative experience, look no further. I would recommend this place to anyone I love. I'm so grateful to this team of empathetic, knowledgeable, and results-driven practitioners!”
