Working Together Toward Your Treatment Goals

As a family practice doctor with a specialization in addiction medicine and life coaching, I bring a wealth of experience in supporting individuals with their mental health. I strongly advocate for a holistic approach to mental wellness, which often involves collaborating with counselors or coaches in addition to my care.

Having personally benefited from counseling and coaching at various stages of my life, I understand their value firsthand. While medications can be beneficial for some, I believe they should complement a comprehensive treatment plan rather than serve as the sole solution.

Extended appointments allow me to forge deeper connections with my patients. In a typical 15-minute visit, discussing blood pressure, back pain, and depression leaves little time to delve into mood-related concerns. I believe this shortcoming undermines effective mental health support.

Improved mood stability paves the way for progress in various aspects of life, whether it's excelling at work, fostering healthier relationships, or adhering to dietary plans for managing conditions like diabetes.

I firmly believe in the interconnectedness of thoughts, emotions, and actions. Negative thoughts can impede efforts toward better health. That's why I prioritize mental health screening for all new patients and actively collaborate with them to enhance their mental well-being

"I can’t say enough about Dr. Villacis. From the first visit she took the time to listen and understand, that has carried through ever since. I’ve had to hound previous doctors because they didn’t follow through or didn’t trust my instincts about my own body.

Dr. Villacis is completely different in all of the best ways.I never feel rushed or like she has some place else she would rather be. She doesn’t hastily make a diagnosis or write a RX. She took the time to explain her fee schedule, which no one has ever done. When I did need a prescription, she took the time to find the least expensive option for me. I didn’t even have to ask.

I also appreciate that she has worked with people of so many different walks of life. There’s never fear that she will judge or be condescending. Her heart is for her patients and it is obvious in the way she runs her practice."
