Sandra Joan Rackley, MD

Dr. Rackley specializes in the care of children and teens with complex conditions that affect both the mind and the body.

She has advanced training in both biomedical interventions and in psychotherapy, so that she can work with a patient and their family to create a comprehensive plan to get a kid back on track and growing again.

Dr. Rackley also has expertise in medical education, including a Master's in Education with a focus on medical education leadership. She has served in leadership roles for physician training programs for 15 years. She has a particular focus on physician and student well-being, suicide prevention, and crisis intervention.
