During her training, she had a privilege to learn from experts in their field. Dr. Oksana enjoys helping patients with variety of mental health problems, including Depression, Anxiety, Schizophrenia, Bipolar Disorder, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Dr. Oksana usually starts working with patients by providing psychiatric evaluation to identify challenging areas and to confirm diagnosis. Since Dr. Oksana believes that patient should take an active role in their care, she then invites patient and guardian, in case of a minor child to join her in formulating the best treatment plan to address patients' problems, and continues to work with patients by providing regular follow up visits for medication management. As most Psychiatrists these days, Dr. Oksana does not provide in-depth talk-therapy, however, being a firm believer in evidence-based treatment, she usually refers patients for a specific type of psychotherapy, if indicated.
Dr. Oksana enjoys working with patients of different ages. Although she specializes in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, she also takes care of adults, which makes her practice a perfect example of integrated care, where multiple family members of different generations can get help and support.
