Where healing begins with understanding.

Need someone who gets what you're going through? Dr. Dorn's got you covered. With serious training from Johns Hopkins (yeah, that's a big deal) and time teaching at UNC, she knows her stuff inside and out. Think of her as having a super deep understanding of all things mental health. Seriously, whatever you're going through – stress, bigger issues – Dr. Dorn gets it and will work with you in a judgment-free zone. Whether it's anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, OCD, or something else, she offers treatments backed by science but focused on you. She's also an expert in reproductive psychiatry, focusing on mental wellness related to hormonal fluctuations. Plus, she makes herself available when things feel urgent – like a real person should. Dr. Dorn respects your choices and will work with you to figure things out, offering the kind of care she'd want for her own family. She's also connected with other experts in the area, ensuring you get the best possible support. Ultimately, she's all about truly understanding your experiences and building trust so you can feel better, function well, and live your best college life.
