Hello, I'm Lauro P.

In some states, NPs may have limits on Schedule II prescribing. When clinically appropriate and legally permitted, the collaborating physician may issue Schedule II prescriptions as the prescriber of record (or comply with any state-specific delegation limits). This reflects additional physician responsibility and documentation. No prescription is guaranteed. I’m a board-certified psychiatrist with more than 30 years of experience, with a clinical focus on treating adolescents and adults who present with complex psychiatric and neuropsychiatric conditions. My work centers on helping individuals with mood disorders, trauma-related symptoms, cognitive and behavioral challenges, especially when neurological or developmental factors complicate these. I prioritize evidence-based care that’s also deeply personal, culturally aware, and grounded in empathy. I regularly manage challenging cases that require careful diagnostic work and close collaboration across various disciplines. I utilize tools such as quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG), neuroimaging, and structured assessments to gain a better understanding of brain-behavior relationships and to guide treatment decisions. My practice encompasses medication management, psychotherapy, family support, and consultation in both clinical and forensic settings. I am known for providing thoughtful, individualized care that balances evidence-based treatment with deep empathy and cultural sensitivity. Frequently, I address complex cases that necessitate coordination among multiple specialties, including those related to traumatic brain injury, treatment-resistant depression, and functional impairments. I integrate tools like qEEG, neuroimaging, and structured psychiatric assessments to inform my clinical decision-making. Additionally, I offer ongoing psychotherapy, medication management, family guidance, and consultation in both clinical and legal contexts. THIS LISTING IS ONLY FOR NP'S THAT NEED A PHYSICIAN TO PROVIDE SCHEDULE II PRESCRIPTION ASSISTANCE IN MISSOURI.
