Patient Resources
If you are in need of psychiatric care, you should call our office to schedule an initial consultation. However, it may be helpful to review the resources offered below. These are not a replacement for mental healthcare with a trained physician. They can still provide helpful information prior to consulting a Tucson psychiatrist.
Dr. DiPierdomenico has several recommended resources for mental health. These links are provided as a source of publicly available information. If you have a question regarding the accuracy of any of the information available on these links please inquire with Dr. DiPierdomenico during your scheduled appointment. Every patient has unique circumstances, and therefore may benefit from additional resources offered in person.
Dr. DiPierdomencio specializes in the treatment of bipolar disorder, depression, and schizophrenia. Additionally, she treats patients suffering from eating disorders and substance abuse. Dr. DiPierdomenico primarily treats adult patients, but she does also provide pediatric psychiatric care and family therapy in her Tucson practice.
