I am a Harvard trained, board certified, Child, Adolescent and Adult Psychiatrist with a private practice in Back Bay Area, Boston. I believe that, the treatment process begins by creating an empathic and trusting relationship between the clinician and patients. During my evaluation and ongoing work, I consider various factors such as, genetic predisposition, biological, psychological and social processes to understand the person fully. Academic affiliation with Boston University helps me stay abreast with not only the recent developments in the field of psychiatry but also with the cultural and evidence based treatments.
With children and adolescents my work involves parent participation and a liaison with other key providers. I have extensive experience of working with schools performing psychiatric evaluations, with children and teenagers struggling with mood, anxiety, attention, behavior and learning difficulties.
I am also affiliated with Boston Psychoanalytical Society and utilize psychoanalytical therapeutic approaches in my work. I provide individual therapy and medication management when warranted.
