Welcome! I am a Harvard and Stanford-trained psychiatrist and psychotherapist based in Menlo Park. My practice focuses on helping people find new paths forward when they feel stuck, dissatisfied, or overwhelmed. It is easy to get trapped in patterns that protect us in some ways but limit us in others. Even when we know what we want to change, it can be difficult to make it happen - to shift away from self-doubt, to cope with anxiety, or to confront something we have been avoiding.

As a starting point, I believe in the critical importance of the therapeutic relationship we create together. I aim to bring warmth and curiosity, along with my clinical experience, to tailor treatment to you. This may include a range of interventions including therapy, medications, supplements, lifestyle changes, coaching, and/or mindfulness practices.

I hope to help you feel more in touch with the various parts of yourself and more empowered to make positive changes in your life. I would welcome the opportunity to partner with you and explore what progress looks like to you. You can find out more about my practice through my website.
