I am a psychiatrist who firmly believes that compassionate and faithful exploration of one’s inner world is the process through which wounds may finally heal. I am humbled to accompany you on this journey. Humanities and ethics have informed my work as a psychodynamic psychotherapist exploring the depths of another person’s inner world. I also have experience and interest in Traditional Chinese Medicine. I simultaneously draw upon medical, neurological, psychological and psychiatric perspectives to provide an integrated vision of the way that suffering manifests itself as physical, mental and spiritual distress.

As a Doctoral psychiatric and family Nurse Practitioner, it is my objective to advocate for patients who fight to be heard or respected, as well as manage their treatment with understanding, empathy, and attention to holistic care. I am a very fortunate nurse practitioner to work in a growing age of healthcare and firmly believe that mental health and individuals living with chronic conditions needing care rely on a culture of acceptance and openness. I will work hard to foster a safe environment for all patients and plan to use my DNP care for patients with anxiety, ADHD, Depression, Bipolar, and chronic conditions.
