We Have Cared for Children and Adolescents Since Opening Our Doors in 2010
Pediatric care is shaped around each child’s development, strengths, challenges, family, and daily environment. Parents and caregivers are included thoughtfully based on the child’s age and needs.
Assessment First
We begin by listening to the child and family, understanding what has already been tried, and identifying current needs and goals. When a deeper assessment is helpful, it can guide more personalized recommendations.
A Collaborative Team
Psychiatry, functional medicine, psychotherapy, and brain-based providers can work together to create a coordinated approach based on what each child needs.
The Whole Child
We consider emotional health alongside development, brain function, physical health, relationships, family life, school, nutrition, sleep, and the child’s lived experience.

How a visit works
Pediatric & Adolescent Care
Your child’s initial visit gives us time to understand their development, school experience, sleep, nutrition, relationships, previous evaluations, and treatments already tried. From there, we determine which members of our child and adolescent psychiatry, functional medicine, and therapy teams can best support your child. Laboratory testing and qEEG brain mapping may be included when appropriate. The team brings these perspectives together and explains the recommendations in language that both children and parents can understand.
