Compassionate Psychiatrist in Columbia, MD Serving the Greater Baltimore Area

Private psychiatrist offering expert-level personalized mental health care to the Maryland and Wisconsin communities

My name is Dr. McWilliams. I am a board-certified private psychiatrist based in Columbia, MD. Most of my patients are in the greater Baltimore area, but I see patients across the state of Maryland, and see patients in the state of Wisconsin as an online psychiatrist. 

I have a broad depth of academic and clinical experience allowing me to diagnose and treat a wide array of mental health conditions using cutting-edge treatment plans that are supported by current research and best-practices in the field. 

In addition, I offer consultation services to other healthcare professionals as part of an integrated care model to expand access to mental health services by offering diagnostic evaluations and treatment recommendations on a short-term basis. 

My experience in academic and community settings has allowed me to meet and get to know people and patients from all different backgrounds. I make it a priority to offer culturally competent medical care with a focus on patient privacy and discretion.

Treatment will start with a thorough diagnostic evaluation. This will allow us to hone in on a specific diagnosis. I will take time to go over the diagnosis, my rationale for it, and any questions you may have about it during our initial session. Once a diagnosis is established, I will then offer you a wide range of personalized treatment options. These may include medications and psychotherapy. 

In addition to medications and psychotherapy, I take a holistic approach to wellness. I incorporate lifestyle modifications that may include sleep hygiene, diet, exercise, social and relationship wellness, career development, and educational goals into the treatment plan in order to better assist my patients in achieving their goals. 

My goal is to not only better control symptoms of mental illness, but to help patients thrive in their lives. In doing so, I seek to develop long-term positive therapeutic relationships founded on trust and collaboration.
