Ryan Pate, MD
Services
I offer a thoughtful, collaborative approach to mental healthcare, beginning with a 90-minute initial intake. This session allows me to gain a comprehensive understanding of your background, past treatments, strengths, and current challenges. Together, we will explore the best path forward, whether that includes medication, therapy, lifestyle modifications, or a combination of approaches tailored to your needs.
​
My goal is to provide care that is individualized, collaborative, and grounded in a deep understanding of who you are.
Medication Management
If appropriate, we will discuss evidence-based medication options, focusing on effectiveness, potential benefits, and any concerns you may have. My approach is thoughtful and conservative, ensuring that medication is used only when beneficial.
Psychotherapy
I believe therapy is a cornerstone of mental health treatment. Whether integrated with medication or pursued on its own, psychotherapy offers an opportunity for self-reflection, growth, and meaningful change.
Lifestyle and Behavioral Strategies
Mental well-being is influenced by many factors, including sleep, nutrition, movement, and stress management. We will discuss personalized strategies to support your overall health and resilience.
