"Somethings's GOT to give. I can't take this any more! No one understands. My spouse? No way. The last doctor said "more meds" and spent as much time with the computer as he did with me! My teenager is sad and going no where fast. I think the younger one might have some kind of Asperger's, ADD,OCD,ODD,PSTD or some alphabet soup salad that I'm just supposed to deal with. The counselors out there are just too young to understand what I'm going through. Certainly life wasn't meant to be like this."

I have always been the friend that people have been able to turn to and consider a good listener. I love hearing people’s stories. While initially interested in psychology- and receiving my undergraduate degree in it- I initially resisted the inclination to go into psychiatry during medical school. However, during my clinical rotations, the psychiatry rotation was the one that left me feeling the most excited, engaged, and “alive.” I recognized this was my calling and continue to feel humbled and grateful to work with my patients.

What are their issues, their needs, their goals? What do they want and why? I have enjoyed working with a wide variety of adults and youth over my career so far. My only requirements from patients are honesty and a desire for self-improvement.
