More To Know

Monica Diteman takes a whole person center approach to psychiatry which includes not only diagnosis and medication management but education, nutritional strategies, activities, appropriate lifestyle recommendations and referrals to other specialists. She finds it important to form a team with primary care, pharmacology women’s health providers, nutritionists, registered nurses and medical assistants so that the people she sees get the most coordinated care possible. Monica has a tremendous amount of compassion but is also honest about what patients can do to heal and even thrive.
