Accepting new patients. I am a board-certified adult psychiatrist offering therapy and medication services, with a focus on mood disorders, depression, and anxiety. I am currently an Assistant Professor at Harvard Medical School and Attending Psychiatrist at Massachusetts General Hospital. I specialize in addressing mental health with a keen appreciation for my patient's cultural and family contexts. I seek to understand your values and goals. During the initial intake, I conduct a comprehensive evaluation to ensure your specific short and long term mental health goals are addressed.
I specialize in treating depression and anxiety, as well as other mood disorders. I offer individual psychotherapy (using modalities like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Behavioral Activation) and also offer medication management services with therapy.
I have a holistic approach to mental health care. I consider the social and cultural context of my patients, in addition to their medical history. I believe understanding your values and goals is essential to your overall mental health path.
