Joshua Brooks
They have a great team of doctors that are supportive and knowledgeable. I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and also suffer from anxiety. However, I never felt judged by my doctor when on my poor decisions. I usually get very overwhelmed talking to new people but she didn’t make me feel nervous I all. I was very comfortable talking to her about my feelings and emotions and she even answered all the questions I had without making me feel inferior. I really appreciate everything she has done for me and I will continue to work with her at Psychiatry of Texas.
Dylan Stewart
I moved to a new neighborhood and I wanted a new psychiatrist that was within my area so I could easily walk to my appointments. I researched online and found that Psychiatry of Texas was within walking distance and it had great reviews. So I decided to go to them. It was very simple and easy to communicate with them. I made a quick call to their clinic and was able to set up a session. The doctor was on time and gave me his full concentration and attention during our appointment. We even managed to develop a plan and set goals that have been working well for me.
Dominic Jones
The doctor at Psychiatry of Texas has helped my son with his ADHD and we are very thankful. She was very thorough and detailed on our first appointment and made sure she understood our needs before coming up with a plan of treatment. I really appreciate the fact that she considered my concerns and didn’t prescribe my son any heavy medication. She worked on enhancing his focus while maintaining his personality and his weight which were major concerns for me. I am looking forward to her entire treatment plan and I recommend her to everyone.
