Methodology

Our mission is to facilitate healing through the creation and nourishment of quality therapeutic relationships. At Via Clinic, all new patients receive a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation. We believe it’s imperative to understand the whole person in the context of their life story, personality, and behavior.

Our guiding principle is that exceptional treatment relationships – those that couple a warm, empathic approach with evidence based practice – are key to patient success and healing. Through a hybrid approach of both in-person and telehealth, we are positioned to deliver personalized care with a human touch and knowledge of local resources, while also harnessing the flexibility of remote practice.

Our approach to psychopharmacology is conservative and evidence-based. We believe in using the fewest medications at the lowest doses necessary to achieve desired results.
