Psychiatrist in Frederick, MD
Frederick is home for us. Our office at 915 Toll House Avenue is where in-person visits happen, and where our clinical team is based. We see Frederick County families, Fort Detrick-area professionals, and students across the county school system — in person or by secure telehealth, whichever fits your week.
What we hear from Frederick patients
Frederick has changed quickly. Long-time families who remember the downtown before the Carroll Creek revitalization now share the city with biotech researchers commuting to Fort Detrick, federal employees riding the MARC line south, and small-business owners along Market Street. School-age kids are stretched across an FCPS system that keeps growing east toward Urbana and New Market.
We try to meet that reality with care that is unhurried and grounded. Visits run long enough to actually think through your situation. Medications are reviewed deliberately. We aim for treatment plans you can describe to your spouse over dinner and feel good about.

How we work
- Board-certified prescribers. Each prescribing clinician is board-certified and licensed in Maryland.
- Patient-centered treatment plans. Your priorities, side-effect tolerance, and life context shape the plan — not a default protocol.
- Evidence-based, current. We follow APA guidelines and use measurement-based tools to track progress.
- Real follow-up cadence. Follow-ups are scheduled at clinically appropriate intervals, not parked weeks out by default.
- Coordinated with your team. We talk with your therapist and PCP when you authorize it.
Insurance & payment
We are in network with most major commercial plans common to Frederick County employers, plus Maryland Medicaid. Visit the insurance page for self-pay rates and verification details.
Telepsychiatry across Maryland
Visits use a HIPAA-compliant video platform that runs in any current browser. You will need to be located in Maryland during the visit. Many Frederick patients alternate in-person and telehealth visits depending on their schedule that week.
