I’m a double board certified child & adult psychiatrist. I work with two age groups: 3 to 17-year-olds with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, PTSD/trauma, autism, & OCD. I’m LGB, Trans, Non-Binary & Genderqueer affirming with related training & experience. I also see 18 to 32-year-olds who are BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color), autistic or LGBTQIA2S+, especially gender diverse folks. I can do assessments for gender affirming surgery. I’ve limited my adult intakes to improve access to care for marginalized populations due to a shortage of psychiatrists trained in providing affirming care.
We'll make decisions as a team, and I'll work closely with your other doctors, schools, therapists, and anyone else you want involved in your/your child's care. I'll make sure you understand all the options to make the best decision for you/your child. Initial evaluations are 2 hours and scheduled as two 1-hour sessions. Follow-ups are usually 30 minutes.
I take the time to listen to your concerns and learn about your life and experiences in an affirming and judgment-free zone so we can build a strong, positive, and collaborative relationship. I make it easy to reach me between appointments. Please click the website link and complete the New Patient Inquiry form to get started.
