"I believe in a individualized approach to treatment. Although many patients may present with similar symptoms, the causes and context underlying those symptoms can be very different and thus the treatment plans are unique. Some patients may benefit from psychotropic medications either for a short period of time or for long term maintenance treatment. Others would gain more benefit from psychotherapy or talk therapy, where some of the root causes underlying the symptoms can be addressed and healed. The choice to use medications, therapy or a combination of both depends on the context of symptoms and the patient's wishes."

"Conventionally and holistically trained, I'm a psychiatrist also certified in Functional Medicine. Applying the individualized, systems approach of functional medicine to psychiatry provides an evidence based, paradigm shifting model to treating chronic illness. In it, we partner to evaluate how your unique biology, history, lifestyle and environment are contributing to disease. We take a wider lens to view the systems involved in underlying disease and focus on healing root causes, rather than just trying to cover up the symptoms. Seeking short term relief while planning long term recovery, together, we seek the right balance of body, mind and spirit."
