As a Boarded psychiatrist based in Westchester Co, NY, specializes in adult and geriatric psychiatry, I also bring into my practice a background in Neurology and Medicine that enables me to address complex diagnostic and behavioral issues. Working with patients and their families, I have used a wide variety of treatments from individual psychotherapy, lifestyle change, different psychopharmacological tools and ketamine therapy to help patients. My practice includes patients 18 yo onward, including elderly patients with dementia and other neuropsychiatric syndromes and end-of-life care. I only work on a fee for service basis.
Listening to my patients and understanding their life-issues are key ingredients to my treatment approach. I see empathy, knowing their struggles, and using my knowledge base as the path to promote their recovery and improve functioning in patients.
