Doctor of Medicine | Psychiatry
Dr. Ahlers treats adults and adolescents who are struggling with mental health needs that impair their ability to function optimally in life, with respect to personal and professional goals. Overcoming a mental health problem often involves pharmacological, spiritual, and behavioral tools in synergy to effect the best outcome as quickly as possible. My approach involves thorough initial and ongoing evaluations, an emphasis on accurate and precise diagnoses, and pharmacological management with active patient involvement in treatment plan.
As a psychiatrist, I am a medical doctor who works with patients provide to assess symptoms and create an individualized treatment plan. This typically includes a discussion about psychotherapy, medication management, and sometimes both. I also collaborate with therapists and other physicians when appropriate to provide the best comprehensive care.
I am passionate about helping people live life as the version of themselves they aspire to be. It is my firm belief that addressing and treating mental health concerns appropriately is an integral step in helping people to achieve this.
