Dr.Nina Jaffarzad Board-Eligible Adult Psychiatrist

I am a board-eligible adult psychiatrist with a commitment to providing high-quality care through both medication management and supportive therapy. My journey includes completing my undergraduate training at the University of Texas at Austin and earning my medical degree at the American University of the Caribbean. I furthered my expertise with a psychiatry residency at Louisiana State University Our Lady of the Lake Psychiatry Residency Program.

Experience:

• Outpatient Care: After residency, I provided outpatient psychiatric services and consultation liaison at Our Lady of the Lake Hospital.
• Academic Involvement: I have served as a volunteer academic supervisor and instructor for residents and medical students, contributing to the education and training of future mental health professionals.
• Culturally Diverse Populations: My experience spans treating a wide range of mental health conditions across culturally diverse patient populations.

My Approach:

• Medication Management and Supportive Therapy: I primarily focus on medication management, complemented by supportive therapy during follow-up visits. This approach aims to address both the biological and psychological aspects of mental health.
• Open Communication: I value the importance of maintaining open communication and building a strong therapeutic alliance with my patients. This collaborative relationship is crucial for effective treatment and achieving positive outcomes.
