I believe every person is unique and therefore needs an individually-tailored therapy approach. My primary approach is psychodynamic, existential and action-oriented. Psychodynamically, I work with my patients to understand how patterns of thinking and feeling from early childhood affect their current lives. Existentially, I help my patients to find personal meaning in their life and cultivate their uniqueness. An empathic & action-oriented approach enables my patients to make real and lasting changes in their personal and professional lives. If desired by the patient, I can prescribe psychiatric medication when medically indicated.
The philosophy of my practice is to help individuals overcome the challenges that confront them in order to achieve psychological, emotional & mental well-being. I do this by helping patients cultivate their inherent strengths and gain insight into the difficult areas of their life.
After studying Biology & Philosophy at Stanford University, I attended Yale Medical School and completed my psychiatric residency at NYU. I am now a Clinical Assistant Professor at Yale Medical School, where I co-founded the Yale Mental Health & Spirituality Center.
