Edwards Psychiatry offers inclusive, affirming mental health care for all ages, specializing in ADHD, therapy, and medication management—serving BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and neurodivergent communities.
Your first step toward psychiatric care is a comprehensive evaluation—a dedicated space to explore what you’re experiencing, how it’s impacting your life, and what kind of support will be most helpful.
This 60-minute intake session is ideal if you’re seeking a first-time diagnosis, updating an existing one, transferring care from another provider, or exploring a second opinion.
During the evaluation, we take time to understand your full story—your symptoms, goals, medical and mental health history, and the context of your life. If additional time is needed, extended sessions up to 90 minutes are available and billed at $450.
Our psychiatric evaluations are open to clients ages 6 and up. This service is especially helpful if you are:
Starting mental health care for the first time
Seeking ADHD or genetic testing (evaluation required first)
Looking for thoughtful medication management
Transitioning from another provider
In need of a fresh, collaborative perspective on diagnosis and treatment
We welcome all identities and backgrounds. Whether you’ve felt dismissed in previous care or are looking for someone who really listens—this is a safe place to start again.
This is a conversation, not an interrogation. Your provider will guide a thoughtful discussion around:
Current symptoms and concerns
Medical and psychiatric history
Life stressors, goals, and values
Past treatment experiences
Your preferences moving forward
By the end of the session, we’ll offer clear recommendations for next steps, which may include therapy, medication, ADHD testing, coaching, or lifestyle changes. You’ll leave with a better understanding of your mental health—and what support makes sense for you.

Ennjoili Fleck2023-12-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have had a transformative experience at Edwards Psychiatry. As someone who has struggled with depression, anxiety, and OCD as a young adult, I have always been hesitant to rely on prescription medications due to past negative experiences and sensitivities to various drugs. Instead, I have focused on natural remedies, healthy eating habits, and maintaining a clean lifestyle. However, as I entered my early forties, I found that my anxiety, mental health, and ability to focus were greatly impacting my family, my health, and my overall success. Despite trying various alternative therapies such as acupuncture, infrared therapy, reiki, craniosacral therapy, and pelvic floor therapy, as well as maintaining a regular exercise routine, I still felt overwhelmed, sleep-deprived, forgetful, and unable to keep up with the demands of my life. My therapist and naturopathic doctor both suggested that I consider medication once again. After extensive research, reading reviews, and feeling desperate for a solution, I decided to book an appointment at Edwards Psychiatry. I was not only pleased to find a highly qualified and licensed professional, but also someone who shared my background as a person of color. The evaluations I underwent were timely and necessary, and when I finally received an ADHD evaluation, it provided answers to so many questions about myself and why I function the way I do. Despite appearing organized and put together to most people, I have been running on empty for far too long. I was initially terrified of taking medication, fearing that I would feel like a zombie or lose my sense of self. However, after carefully establishing a medication schedule and starting with a low dose, I immediately noticed a remarkable sense of balance and calm. The best part is that I finally feel like the best version of myself. No longer am I constantly running late, burning out, or engaged in a never-ending battle with time. The transition onto medication was unbelievably smooth, and to my surprise, I experienced no side effects. During my first follow-up appointment with Domenique, I was overcome with emotion as I realized just how much I had needed this help for so long. Domenique is an exceptional professional who made me feel comfortable and supported throughout the entire process. She was transparent about everything and never pushed me into taking medication. She even had a backup plan in case the initial dose didn't work for me and was always available for any questions or concerns I had between appointments. I felt safe and cared for every step of the way. I am incredibly grateful for the positive outcome of my experience at Edwards Psychiatry. It has truly been life-changing, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Rebecca Shaffer-Allen2023-12-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dominique is just so genuinely kind and respectful. She sincerely listens to what you’re experiencing and helps you create a plan to see the results you want. She had never made me feel like a burden for asking questions or bringing up things that aren’t working for me. She genuinely wants to help you get to a good place and it definitely shows in the way she treats you. She is just so incredibly kind and it is very reassuring that she’s always smiling and laughing with you. Heather Snell2023-12-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Domenique is very knowledgeable, kind, and welcoming. She came highly recommended and I can see why. She is calming, easy to open up to, no judgment zone, very responsive, and makes it this journey better. Thank you!
