Why Attuna
How care works
First appointments of 90 to 120 minutes
Evaluations get the time they need. Nothing about your first visit is rushed.
Your records, read first
School reports, prior evaluations, outside notes: I read what you send before we meet, so our time is spent on you.
One doctor, start to finish
No rotating clinicians. The physician who evaluates you is the physician who treats you.
Children, teens & adults
Who I see
For children & teens
Autism, ADHD, anxiety, and the rest of growing up. A first appointment of 90 to 120 minutes, your child’s records read before we meet, and you in the room and in the plan.
Care for children & teens →For adults
Autism and ADHD in adults are real, common, and often missed, including in people who were told for years that nothing was going on. Alongside them, general adult psychiatry: anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, sleep, and emotional regulation.
Care for adults →Services
Comprehensive autism & ADHD evaluations
A multi-session, physician-led evaluation: detailed developmental history, direct clinical assessment, review of records, and a written report with a feedback session. Evaluation requests are reviewed for fit before scheduling.
About evaluations →Medication management & ongoing care
Thoughtful, conservative prescribing and continuity of care for autism, ADHD, anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, sleep, and emotional regulation, with one doctor who knows your whole story.
About ongoing care →Second-opinion consultations
A one-time, in-depth review of a diagnosis or treatment plan: records review and written impressions from a fresh set of eyes, with no ongoing-care commitment.
About second opinions →There is no standard patient, so I don’t practice standard psychiatry. Before we talk about treatment, I want to understand the whole picture: your medical story, your biology, your temperament, and the inner life that shaped how you experience the world.

Fees & insurance
Independent by design
Attuna is a self-pay, out-of-network practice, which is what makes unhurried visits and one consistent doctor possible. Superbills are provided for possible out-of-network reimbursement, HSA and FSA funds can typically be used, and every patient receives a Good Faith Estimate before starting care. The practice is not in-network with insurance plans and is not accepting Medicare. Fees are discussed before scheduling and confirmed in writing before any appointment.
How fees work →Not sure whether this is the right fit?
We can assess that together. If you are unsure, request a free 10-minute call with Dr. Ozdemir and we will talk it through before scheduling.
