Addiction Informed Psychiatry
Substance use disorders frequently coexist with mood disorders, trauma‑related conditions, anxiety, ADHD, and other psychiatric illnesses. Effective treatment requires careful diagnostic clarification, structured medication planning, and attention to both the biological and psychological dimensions of addiction.
Dr. Miller provides addiction‑informed psychiatric care for adults (18+) seeking comprehensive, physician‑directed treatment in a confidential setting.
Conditions Treated
Evaluation and treatment include:
Opioid dependence
Alcohol use disorder
Cocaine and other stimulant use disorders
Benzodiazepine dependence
Prescription medication misuse
Co‑occurring psychiatric and substance use disorders (dual diagnosis)
Treatment‑resistant addiction presentations
Care focuses on stabilization, relapse prevention, and long‑term recovery while addressing underlying psychiatric contributors.
Medication‑Assisted Treatment (MAT)
When clinically appropriate, treatment may include FDA‑approved medications for alcohol and opioid use disorders, including:
Oral medications for craving reduction and relapse prevention
Long‑acting injectable medications for alcohol use disorder
Long‑acting injectable medications for opioid dependence
Management of benzodiazepine dependence includes structured tapering protocols, monitoring for withdrawal risk, and treatment of underlying anxiety or insomnia with evidence‑based alternatives.
All medication strategies are individualized and integrated within ongoing psychiatric care, with careful monitoring and risk assessment.
Integrated Dual‑Diagnosis Care
Many individuals with addiction also experience depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, anxiety disorders, ADHD, or psychotic disorders. Dr. Miller’s dual board certification in Psychiatry and Addiction Medicine allows for coordinated management of both substance use and co‑occurring psychiatric conditions within a unified treatment plan.
The objective is sustained recovery, clinical stability, and restoration of functional well‑being.
