Comprehensive Psychiatric Care Near Voorhees

Finding the right psychiatrist is not just about getting a prescription. It is about understanding what is actually causing symptoms and choosing the right treatment approach.

Located a short drive from Voorhees in Cherry Hill, we offer both in-person and telehealth visits.

CONDITIONS WE TREAT

Common Reasons Patients From Voorhees Seek Care

Adults and parents often contact us when symptoms begin interfering with school, work, or relationships. We frequently evaluate ADHD, anxiety, panic symptoms, depression, mood instability, school refusal, emotional regulation difficulties, OCD patterns, burnout, stress overload, post-concussion emotional changes, and sleep problems.

Some patients need therapy guidance, some need medication, and some need clarity about what is happening. The evaluation determines the plan.

CHILD & TEEN PSYCHIATRY

Helping Kids and Adolescents Function Again

Children and teens often show emotional distress differently than adults. Instead of saying they feel depressed or anxious, they may avoid school, become irritable, withdraw from activities, develop sleep problems, lose confidence, or have declining grades.

We help families understand what is happening and build a practical treatment plan involving both the child and parents.

ADULT PSYCHIATRY

When Stress Stops Resolving

Many adults seek care after months or years of trying to push through symptoms. Common concerns include persistent anxiety, mental exhaustion, low motivation, difficulty focusing, life transition stress, and work performance decline.

Treatment focuses on restoring functioning rather than simply reducing symptoms.

MEDICATION MANAGEMENT

Careful, Individualized Prescribing

Medication can be helpful, but only when matched to the correct diagnosis. We emphasize accurate diagnosis first, conservative prescribing, monitoring effectiveness, adjusting when necessary, and periodic re-evaluation.

Many patients come after partial improvement elsewhere. Often the medication was not wrong, but incomplete for the condition.

SPORTS & STUDENT MENTAL HEALTH

Supporting Student-Athletes

Families in Voorhees frequently seek help for student-athletes experiencing performance anxiety, confidence loss, burnout, post-concussion emotional symptoms, and academic pressure. Treatment focuses on helping students return to school, activities, and confidence.
