Ideally my patient is as invested in their care as I am. They could have a variety of diagnoses but the thing they have in common is they are willing to give the process time, are open to new ideas, and know there is no magic pill to fix all their problems. My patients want to get to the best version of themselves and are willing to try therapy as well as medications to help them reach that goal. My patient wants an empathetic, listening provider who can guide their care based on the evidence, but tailored to their individual needs.

Throughout childhood and adulthood, we sometimes encounter challenges that are not easy to overcome. These challenges often time come from developmental crisis, life stressors, behavioral patterns or disease. We deal with conflicting feelings and thoughts that are in our way to develop at our full potential, build meaningful relationships and succeed academically and professionally. It takes courage and self-awarness to ask for help when we feel the most vulnerable. I am committed to provide a warm, compassionate and safe environment that promotes growth and collaborative work .

My approach is to synthesize a medical-model to the evaluation and treatment of your symptoms with a commitment to psychodynamic therapy. Diagnostic labels can be useful if you may need medications; but,even more important is our work together to understand the context of your current difficulties. What are the triggers for your symptoms; what are the meanings you give to feelings; and, how do your relationships, past and present, effect your coping style? My aim is to facilitate your growth towards ever greater authenticity, and to empower you to make healthier choices and maintain a more positive outlook.

My expertise is in working with people who have symptoms of depression and anxiety. I have been in practice for more than 30 years. While I primarily see patients for psychopharmacology treatment, I combine that with psychotherapy for some patients. I am also happy to work with you and your current therapist or primary care doctor and am comfortable treating patients with co-occurring medical issues. I feel that treatment works best when it is collaborative and I want my patients to be aware of treatment options so that we can make a decision together about which treatment may be best for you.
