Dr. Elizabeth Ssemanda
Adult and Adolescent Psychiatrist
As a board-certified psychiatrist, I believe in providing a safe, supportive, and empowering environment where you feel heard, and your needs are met. I work with adolescents and adults struggling with depression/bipolar disorder, anxiety, OCD, trauma, ADHD, adjustment disorders, insomnia, women’s issues, and relationship conflict. For your convenience, I offer in-person and video conferencing appointments on a secure platform.
Understanding that many factors affect mental health, I take a holistic approach where medication is an option but NOT the only option. I have received extensive training in medication management, therapy (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy/Interpersonal Therapy), and behavioral strategies for self-care and wellness. I aim to provide treatment that gets to the root of your problem and helps you to thrive.

Gene Harvie
Mental Health Therapist
Throughout my 25 years of experience as a psychotherapist, I have found that every human being faces difficult challenges at some point in their lives. Unfortunately, life did not come with an instructional manual to guide us through these various struggles. Psychotherapy is a journey that can help support you, provide you with insight and clarity, and assist you in making positive steps towards your preferred future.
Equipped with extensive training in various therapeutic modalities, I bring these tools to each session with my clients. Like different lenses, therapeutic perspectives can help you see paths forward that have never occurred to you before, paving a new path toward healing and promoting positive change.
Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, addiction, trauma, or family and relationship issues, I have worked with clients suffering with the same. You are not alone even though it may feel that way, and I can help.
If you are ready to take steps toward a new future, please contact me.
