I am dual board certified child, adolescent and adult psychiatrist. I see clients from age 12 and up. People come to treatment for all sorts of reasons — anxiety, depression, trauma, difficulty functioning at work or school, family conflict, challenges in relationships, low self-esteem, or simply a desire to learn more about themselves. As a child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist with expertise in both medication management and psychotherapy, I can help patients develop a treatment plan that meets their needs. My style is guided by warmth and flexibility, with the goals of helping patients build insight and reduce symptoms.
I create individualized treatment plans, assessing patients' goals, unique life experiences, and biological risk factors. While medication is useful in some cases, I am dedicated to helping my patients achieve lasting change through therapy as well.

“My appointment with Dr.Yu was excellent.
He issued a Rx for a compounded mixture.
The pharmacy he recommended and sent the Rx to quoted a price of $143.31
I checked with Braselton Pharmacy and their quoted price for the same Rx was $85.00
I thought you should know this so that your patients get the products you want them to have at a good price.
Accordingly , I was disappointed with the pharmacy you sent the Rx to .i saved 40% of the cost by using Braselton Pharmacy .
Accordingly I did not give you a less than 5 star review because I am sure you thought the pharmacy you were referring me to offered competitive pricing .”
