  • Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)
  • Substance use disorder (SUD)
  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)

Our practice emphasizes a holistic approach to treatment whenever possible, with medication management available when appropriate to support each patient’s individual needs.

What are the symptoms of mental health challenges?

The symptoms you may encounter because of a mental health condition include:

  • Constant worry or fear
  • Extreme or ongoing depression 
  • Flashbacks
  • Nightmares
  • Obsessions
  • Compulsions
  • Mood swings
  • Substance misuse
  • Problems paying attention or sitting still
  • Difficulty sleeping
  • Weight loss or weight gain

If your symptoms are severe or they don’t go away on their own, schedule an appointment for a mental health evaluation. 

Your risk of having a mental health challenge may increase because of a family history of mental health issues, past trauma, ongoing stress, or having certain personality traits.

How does my provider diagnose mental health issues?

Diana screens you for mental health disorders by reviewing your personal and family medical histories. She asks about your lifestyle habits, symptoms, and current medication regimen.

During a psychiatric evaluation, she asks questions about your thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and mood.

My Wellness Psychiatry offers GeneSight® genetic testing to determine which medications may work best with your genetic makeup and personalized needs. Diana then tailors a treatment plan that suits your unique situation. 

What are the standard treatments for mental health disorders?

Diana offers an array of effective mental health treatments. She uses lifestyle-change counseling to teach you ways to improve your diet, exercise, and sleep habits, while minimizing stress.

My Wellness Psychiatry also provides medication management, psychotherapy, and more. During counseling sessions, Diana uses cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) or other forms of therapy to help you overcome traumatic situations and unpleasant symptoms linked to a mental health disorder. 

She follows up with you to make sure your treatment is effective and offers counseling sessions whenever needed.
