Experienced, Child-Focused Care
Dr. Dixit has many years of experience treating children with behavioral concerns using a thoughtful, conservative approach. Many patients he treated as children continue their mental health care with him into adulthood.
Conservative, Safety-First Medication Philosophy
A conservative approach to psychoactive medication is central to the care of conditions such as ADHD and anxiety. We prioritize medication safety so children can benefit without being overmedicated.
Comprehensive Evaluation Process
- Behavioral intake: We start with a comprehensive behavioral intake.
- Information gathering: We collect input and data from teachers, daycare providers, parents, and (when appropriate) the patient.
- Diagnosis and plan: We integrate the information to reach a diagnosis and build a treatment plan together with the patient and parents as partners in care.
Personalized Treatment Options
Your personalized treatment plan may include FDA-approved medication, evidence-based therapy, or a combination of both.
Parent Education and Support
- We believe parent education and understanding are essential to managing and treating behavioral disorders.
- Our office takes time to review the purpose of each medication, expected benefits, and potential side effects.
We have experience in managing common Pediatric Mental Health Disorders
