ABOUT
DR. ESTHER ROLLHAUS
I am a board-certified psychiatrist offering medication management and psychotherapy to treat children, adolescents, and adults. I strongly believe that the treatment of individuals involves a careful understanding of the families, communities, and systems that shape their lives.
MY TREATMENT PHILOSOPHY
When evaluating and treating individuals, I want to get to know the whole person. I begin with a thorough evaluation where I will get to know who you are and what has brought you to treatment. My initial evaluations include a thorough assessment of the biological, psychological and social factors that contribute to your current symptoms and difficulties. Then, together, we will develop a treatment plan that may include medications or psychotherapy. My treatment recommendations are tailored to each individual's specific needs and situation, and are highly respectful of your personal preferences and values.
In my work with children and adolescents, I believe collaboration is key. Engaging the child, the family, and the school or pediatrician (if appropriate) is important to provide integrated and holistic care. My approach is attachment-based and developmentally informed.
I have a particular interest in perinatal and reproductive psychiatry and feel passionate about providing thoughtful treatment to women suffering from reproductive-associated mood and anxiety disorders, managing preexisting mental illness during pregnancy, and providing supportive and sensitive care for those struggling with infertility, miscarriage, and infant loss.
I strive to combine my knowledge and practice of medicine with the highest ethical and moral standards, compassion, and humanism.
