Care begins with a comprehensive evaluation by a psychiatrist. We look beyond symptoms to the things that shape them: your health, your medications, your sleep, your history, and the demands of your life.
Every patient at Montenegro & Associates is evaluated and treated by a board-certified physician psychiatrist. Our physicians completed medical school, comprehensive residency training in psychiatry, and—in some cases—additional subspecialty training in child and adolescent psychiatry. This medical foundation helps us consider the full picture, including emotional health, physical health, medications, development, and life circumstances.
Academic expertise with the time, attention, and continuity of a personalized private practice.
Evaluations consider each person's medical history, development, family and social context. Treatment plans are individualized and may include medication management, psychotherapy recommendations, behavioral strategies, additional evaluation, or medical follow-up.
With appropriate consent, we collaborate with therapists, primary care clinicians, families, schools, and other members of the treatment team when clinically useful. We aim to define our role clearly, avoid unnecessary duplication, and respect the relationships already in place.
Our physicians hold academic appointments at the University of Washington and Seattle Children's Hospital, and their work includes teaching, research, and consultation alongside clinical practice.
Care is provided by physicians. Individual appointments and roles are described on each clinician's profile.
All three of our psychiatrists care for children, adolescents, and adults. Care is organised by age as well as by concern.
Secure telepsychiatry allows eligible patients to receive care from home. Services are available in Washington, California, Arizona, Alaska, Maine, and Wyoming, depending on clinician licensure and availability.
