Comprehensive Psychiatric Care at
Sonoran Sun Wellness

At Sonoran Sun Wellness, psychiatric care begins with thorough assessment and diagnostic clarity, not rushed appointments or quick labels. We take time to understand your symptoms, history, and goals to develop an individualized treatment plan.

​

Our approach integrates evidence-based psychiatry, trauma-informed care, and collaborative decision-making to support sustainable mental health outcomes.

​

Psychiatric Evaluations

A psychiatric evaluation provides the foundation for effective treatment.

Evaluations may include:

  • Detailed psychiatric and medical history

  • Review of current symptoms and functioning

  • Differential diagnosis and diagnostic clarification

  • Screening for anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related symptoms, and mood disorders

  • Collaborative discussion of findings and treatment options

​​

Our goal is to ensure care is accurate, informed, and aligned with your needs.

​

Medication Management

  • Thoughtful prescribing and dose optimization

  • Ongoing symptom and side-effect monitoring
