ADHD Treatment Telehealth Psychiatry | Colorado | Balanced Psychiatry

Yes. As a board-certified PMHNP licensed in Colorado, I can evaluate, diagnose, and prescribe both stimulant and non-stimulant ADHD medications via telehealth — in full compliance with Colorado and federal prescribing regulations. A thorough evaluation is always completed before any prescription is issued.

Yes. I treat ADHD in adults, teens, and children. Each age group presents differently — and I take the time to understand how ADHD shows up specifically for your child or teen, not just their symptoms on a checklist.

Stimulant medications such as Adderall and Vyvanse work quickly and are effective for most people with ADHD. Non-stimulant options like Strattera or Intuniv are a better fit for some patients — including those with anxiety, a history of substance use, or who did not respond well to stimulants. We decide together which approach fits your specific situation.

My ADHD evaluation is thorough and conversational — not just a checklist. Here is what the process looks like:  

· We start with a comprehensive intake session where I gather your full history — childhood, school, work, relationships, and how ADHD symptoms have shown up across your life.  

· I use validated screening tools and clinical interviews to assess the type and severity of your ADHD.  

· We discuss what has and has not worked in the past — previous diagnoses, medications, coping strategies.  

· I rule out other conditions that can look like ADHD — anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and thyroid problems can all mimic ADHD symptoms.  

· At the end of the evaluation I share my findings and we build your treatment plan together.  No brain scans, no lengthy paper tests. Just a real conversation with a clinician who takes the time to actually listen.
