Mental illness is hard. Hard to understand, even harder to explain while facing challenges and limitations in looking for treatment options.
Seeking mental health treatment is also hard. Talking to someone about highly personal issues; waiting for weeks to months for an appointment; conflicting opinions on what might be best for you, only to feel frustrated with the time and effort needed to get better.
With all the challenges you face, in moments of crisis, seeking out care for your mental health can be lifesaving! Whatever your situation, I have worked to provide options to help you receive timely, quality care.
I am a Board-certified Adult and Child Psychiatrist with post graduate training at the University of Kentucky and continue to work in Lexington, KY. I have over 15 years of experience in academic psychiatry, inpatient/ outpatient clinical work, research and administration, including helping create Oliver Winston Behavioral Urgent Care to serve this area.
Through my experiences, I have learned how important access to care is for mental health and worked towards addressing the need. For those that would like to consult with me as a private patient, I would be privileged to work with you and provide evidence-based treatments to help improve your health and quality of life.
