ADHD Psychiatrist Philadelphia office

Expert ADHD Treatment in Philadelphia:

Personalized Care for High-Achieving Adults

Navigating the ADHD Landscape in PA

As a board-certified psychiatrist licensed in Pennsylvania, I provide both in-person care in Philadelphia and Ambler, and secure telepsychiatry for patients across the Commonwealth.

I am also licensed in New Jersey, Delware, New York and Massachusetts, ideal for patients who move around.

Why Choose an Out-of-System Specialist?

Many Philadelphia hospital systems have 6-month waiting lists for ADHD evaluations. By choosing a private-pay, out-of-network specialist, you gain:

  1. Immediate Access: Appointments are often available within 1–2 weeks.

  2. Longer Visits: 60-minute intake sessions and 20 or 45-minute follow-ups (compared to the 5-minute "med checks" common in larger systems).

  3. Direct Communication: You speak directly with your physician, not a call center or an automated portal.

Philadelphia Neighborhoods Served

While my reach is statewide via telehealth, I am a proud part of the Philadelphia community, frequently seeing patients from:

  • Center City & Rittenhouse Square

  • University City (Penn, Drexel, USciences)

  • Main Line (Bryn Mawr, Ardmore, Haverford)

  • Chestnut Hill & Mt. Airy

Specialized ADHD Care for Philadelphia’s Professionals and Students

Philadelphia is a city of high-stakes academic and professional environments. Whether you are a resident at Penn Medicine, a student at Temple or Drexel, or a professional in Center City, the demands on your executive function are immense.

Standard ADHD care often feels like a "one-size-fits-all" approach. In this practice, I move beyond simple prescriptions to provide Precision Psychopharmacology. We look at the nuances of your focus, emotional regulation, and sleep to build a treatment plan that fits your life—not just your diagnosis.

Diagnostic & Treatment Process

I provide a comprehensive evaluation that distinguishes ADHD from "imposter" conditions like anxiety, depression, or OCD.

  • Evidence-Based Diagnostics: This is not a practice that hands out ADHD diagnoses to anyone who requests them. We will dive into your history and current condition to thoughtfully address any underlying diagnoses.

  • Medication Optimization: We won’t just "start a stimulant." We fine-tune delivery systems (IR vs. XR), salt ratios (3:1 vs. 1:1), and non-stimulant adjuncts like Intuniv or Qelbree to minimize side effects. I will work with you to try newer, branded medications for ADHD if needed.

  • Comprehensive Support: I coordinate with local Philadelphia therapists to ensure you have the behavioral tools to match your medical progress.
