Overview

Providing expert clinical services in a warm, welcoming environment, Ms. Eby treats a variety of needs, including bipolar, depression, anxiety disorders, panic, attention disorders, PTSD, insomnia.

Psychiatric services are offered to adults and adolescents, 17 years and older. Prior to the first visit, many patients already suspect or know that they have depression or bipolar disorder (go to Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance at www.dbsalliance.org); anxiety ("nerves,") obsessive compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress (go to Anxiety Disorder Association of America at www.adaa.org), or insomnia. Other patients don't have a name for what's causing their distress, but they know that something isn’t right.

Access Psychiatry can respond to fit your needs and requirements. This care can take many forms. For example, the patient who receives most of their care from their primary care provider may need attention to just some of the symptoms. Other patients will visit Access Psychiatry for a second opinion or a follow-up consultation for treatment provided by others. Sometimes a "fresh pair of eyes" can see something new and useful. A comprehensive treatment review can often fill in the “missing pieces,” resulting in improved health.

Access Psychiatry provides a holistic view which may include assessing biological, medical, nutritional, psychological, and social factors which may be impacting on your stated needs. This comprehensive assessment will engage you in a partnership for health which may include medication, therapy, and medical assessments. For more information on medication and pharmacology, excellent resources include the National Library of Medicine www.nlm.nih.gov and the National Institute of Mental Health www.nimh.nih.gov.
