I am a general psychiatrist with a holistic approach to mental health. My aim is to combine the best of modern medicine with talk therapy and integrative healing. I want to help people understand themselves better and feel more fulfilled, and I try to tailor treatment to meet each individual's unique history, circumstances and goals. I am comfortable working on a wide range of issues including ADHD, addiction, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder and trauma. I am flexible with my approach and am happy to work with people for medication management, talk therapy or both.
I am a psychiatrist trained in the advanced medical treatment of a broad range of mental health disorders. I have received extensive training in several types of psychotherapy such as psychodynamic therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. I am further interested in alternative forms of healing such as music, art, meditation and nutrition.
Please reach out if you are interested in an evaluation or if you have any questions about treatment! I would be very happy to discuss what you are experiencing and what might be the most helpful for you, and at the very least help point you in the right direction!
