I'm a Board Certified, Duke-trained psychiatrist. I listen with compassion, warmth, and acumen to understand people's struggles and see their unique strengths. Although I'm trained/experienced in multiple psychotherapy modalities (biorhythm therapy, MBSR, motivational interviewing, ACT, DBT, yoga) currently I'm only doing medication management. I approach care collaboratively and judiciously, using evidence-based principles which include integration with psychotherapy and wellness routines. After 20+ years at Duke, I'm new to private practice. Office visits on Broad St or telemedicine. (Not available for NP or PA collaborations. )
