Comprehensive Psychiatric Diagnostic Evaluations
Dr. Jackson uses her knowledge of developmental, psychological, medical, cognitive, and social factors to evaluate and establish a psychiatric diagnosis or "working formulation" to aid in understanding area(s) of concern, and to develop comprehensive and effective treatment plans for her child and adolescent patients.
Individualized Psychiatric Treatment
Dr. Jackson tailors each patient's treatment to their specific needs & wishes. Psychotherapy techniques & education/support are incorporated into all follow up appointments. If psychiatric medication is determined to be an important addition to one's treatment plan her strategy is to treat with the lowest effective dose, and to prescribe as few medications as possible. If psychiatric medication is not indicated she offers applicable referrals (i.e., individual and/or family therapy, pediatrics).
