EXTENDED INTEGRATIVE
PSYCHIATRIC EVALUATION
OUR EXTENDED EVALUATION GOES FAR BEYOND SYMPTOMS, TAKING A ROOT-CAUSE APPROACH TO YOUR MENTAL HEALTH.
When mental health challenges like anxiety, depression, burnout, or brain fog feel overwhelming, a standard 30–50 minute intake often isn’t enough. I offer an extended integrative psychiatric evaluation to take the time needed to understand the full picture of your mental health.
This evaluation is available for clients in Corona del Mar, Rancho Cucamonga, and across California, and I provide telehealth sessions for those who prefer the convenience of virtual care. Telehealth allows you to receive the same in-depth assessment and guidance from the comfort of home.
WHAT IS EXTENDED INTEGRATIVE PSYCHIATRIC EVALUATION
An extended integrative psychiatric evaluation is more than a typical intake. I slow down to listen carefully, review your history, and explore the underlying contributors to your symptoms. This evaluation looks at:
Emotional and behavioral patterns
Medical history, including past treatments and medications
Lifestyle, nutrition, and sleep habits
Stressors, trauma history, and relational dynamics
Cognitive and attention-related factors
Instead of focusing solely on the presenting symptom, we explore the root causes of what you’re experiencing. By understanding the bigger picture, we can create a personalized, actionable plan designed to support your mental health in the long term.
When you schedule an evaluation, I begin by reviewing your complete history. This includes prior mental health treatments, medications, therapy experiences, and any medical conditions that could influence your symptoms. I ask detailed questions to understand your current challenges and what goals you hope to achieve.
The evaluation often includes:
☼ Thorough psychiatric and medical history review
☼ Symptom assessment across mood, anxiety, cognition, and sleep
☼ Discussion of lifestyle factors including diet, sleep, and stress
☼ Review of past lab results or diagnostic testing
☼ Integration of any prior therapy notes or specialist reports
After the evaluation, I summarize findings in a clear, personalized plan. This plan may include:
Recommendations for therapy approaches or modalities
Medication management or adjustments if indicated
Nutrition, supplement, or lifestyle interventions
Coordination with your existing healthcare providers
Through extended integrative psychiatric evaluation in California, clients leave with a roadmap that feels practical, actionable, and specific to their needs.
