Conditions treated
Focus areas
Dr. Jubert works with adults, children, and adolescents across a range of psychiatric conditions. Each condition below reflects areas where thorough evaluation, integrated treatment, and continuity of care make a measurable difference in outcomes.
Conditions treated
Depression
Depression is more than persistent sadness. It can present as fatigue, irritability, difficulty concentrating, physical pain, sleep disruption, or a gradual withdrawal from the things that once mattered. When depression does not respond to treatment, the question is often not whether the medication is wrong but whether the full picture has been examined.
ADHD
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder affects focus, impulse control, and executive function in ways that can disrupt work, relationships, education, and daily organization. In children, it is one of the most common reasons for psychiatric evaluation. In adults, it is one of the most commonly overlooked.
Anxiety Disorders
Anxiety is among the most common reasons people seek psychiatric care. It presents in many forms: persistent worry that resists reassurance, physical tension and restlessness, difficulty sleeping, avoidance of situations that trigger fear, and sudden episodes of panic that can feel like a medical emergency. The label matters less than understanding what is driving it.
Panic attacks, generalized anxiety, and everything in between
Anxiety disorders include generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, social anxiety, and specific phobias, and they frequently overlap with depression, PTSD, ADHD, and medical conditions such as hyperthyroidism and chronic pain. A diagnosis that identifies only “anxiety” without examining what type, what is driving it, and what else may be contributing often leads to treatment that manages symptoms without resolving the underlying problem. Panic attacks are often misidentified or incompletely evaluated, and generalized anxiety is often medicated when the anxiety is actually a reasonable response to overwhelming life circumstances. Medication can reduce the intensity, but treatment that does not also address what is fueling the anxiety will only suppress what keeps returning.
OCD
Obsessive-compulsive disorder involves intrusive, unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors or mental rituals (compulsions) performed to reduce the distress those thoughts produce. It is more common than many people realize and is frequently misunderstood, misdiagnosed, or undertreated.
PTSD
Post-traumatic stress disorder develops after exposure to events that involve actual or threatened death, serious injury, or violence. It can follow military combat, assault, accidents, childhood abuse, medical trauma, or witnessing harm to others. PTSD changes the way the brain processes danger, memory, and emotion, and it often coexists with depression, substance use, chronic pain, and sleep disorders.
Bipolar Disorder
Bipolar disorder involves episodes of depression alternating with periods of mania or hypomania, which can include elevated mood, increased energy, reduced need for sleep, impulsive behavior, grandiosity, and racing thoughts. It is one of the most consequential psychiatric diagnoses to get right, because treatment for bipolar depression differs substantially from treatment for unipolar depression.
Insomnia
Persistent difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking feeling unrested affects every other area of health. Sleep disruption worsens depression, amplifies anxiety, impairs concentration, increases irritability, and undermines the effectiveness of psychiatric medication. Treating insomnia as a secondary concern rather than a primary treatment target is one of the most common oversights in psychiatric care.
Substance Use Disorders
Substance use disorders involve patterns of alcohol, drug, or medication use that persist despite negative consequences to health, relationships, work, or daily functioning. These conditions frequently co-occur with depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and ADHD, and effective treatment must address both the substance use and the psychiatric conditions driving or worsening it.

If symptoms have persisted despite treatment, or if you have not received a thorough evaluation that examined the full picture, this practice was built for that work. Contact Dr. Jubert to schedule an initial evaluation.
