Boise Behavioral Medicine is a family owned and operated business. Todd is the psychiatric provider. His wife, Jess, runs all of the office activities from front desk to billing. You may occasionally see our young daughter here as well. Both Jess and Todd care deeply about offering the best personalized care we can to our patients. Caring for those in need of help is something we are both very passionate about.
Todd has been in the mental health field for a total of 16+ years as of 2023. He has worked in multiple fields in mental health, settling into his psychiatry role beginning in 2015. Having experience in other fields of mental health has brought a broader understanding of how to improve outcomes by using multiple resources, not just medication. He has worked in general psychiatry out-patient practice, as well as specialized for 4 years in addiction medicine at the residential, partial hospitalization, and intensive out-patient levels of care.
Our philosophy of mental health care is that medications are a support tool that can create stability while working with counseling and other resources to provide long-term stability. We strive to have patients on the minimum amount of medication needed to control symptoms. We also emphasize the importance of counseling services as a powerful tool for long-term positive outcomes.
At Boise Behavioral Medicine, we are committed to giving you an accurate diagnosis, discussing it with you, and educating you on all aspects of the diagnosis and treatment options. Our goal is for you to have a thorough understanding of your diagnosis and available treatment options. We believe in providing superior care by spending time to get to know you, answer your questions, and make you comfortable with the process. We also prioritize communication and coordination with other providers for a higher continuity of care.
