After losing 2 children & sustaining an arm amputation from a motor vehicle accident, Annette has seen firsthand the fragmented mental health care system. She took her loss, returned to school to pursue a degree in psychiatry, and dedicated her career to helpinging patients reach their highest potential and instilling a new hope that happiness & mental health can be achieved. Annette is breaking the status quo by utilizing 16 years of patient care combining complementary diagnostic tools like genetic medication testing & cutting-edge therapies in conjunction with evidence-based care to advance the mental health of her patients. With medical & psychological training, she treats the “whole” patient, both mind and body in a holistic, integrated, & complimentary manner, stopping the “band-aid” effect. Her approach to mental health is to acknowledge each patient is different, providing customized treatment plans & help patients stop existing & start living.
