Meet Dr. Hendrix MD, PMH-C

I am a board-eligible psychiatrist providing thoughtful, evidence-based care for adults throughout Michigan. I completed my psychiatry residency at Henry Ford Health and pursued a special interest in women's mental health and reproductive psychiatry, including PMH-C certification. My work has also been published in The Lancet Psychiatry, one of the world's leading psychiatric journals.

I believe meaningful psychiatric care begins with truly understanding the person behind the symptoms. I take the time to learn your story, explore the patterns and experiences shaping your mental health, and understand what matters most to you. My approach combines evidence-based medicine with thoughtful, honest conversations and individualized treatment. Together, we'll develop a plan that reflects not only your clinical needs, but also your values, goals, and the life you want to lead.
