My patients often describe the feeling of finally being seen. That is deliberate. I begin with a truly comprehensive 3-hour evaluation—because accurate formulation requires time and depth. Most have seen multiple psychiatrists before finding me. They are thoughtful, high-functioning individuals who know they are complex: overlapping or contradictory diagnoses, meds that stopped working, or received treatment that improved symptoms but still didn’t feel understood. They come seeking a psychiatrist who takes time to gather a complete picture—integrating developmental experiences that shape each person’s response to their life.

Being human involves experiencing a wide range of states of mind—from joy to suffering, from moments we wish could last forever to those we long to escape. Each experience offers insight into who we are and how we relate to the world around us.
In my practice, I take the time to examine how your symptoms developed, how they affect you, and how they relate to your biology, your psychological history, and your current life circumstances.
I provide individualized psychiatric care, with the understanding that mental health conditions do not present in the same way across individuals. Each person’s experience is different.

FAQ - Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Psychiatrists
Do psychiatrists provide cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)?
Yes, many psychiatrists provide CBT as a therapeutic approach in sessions with clients. CBT is an evidence-based form of therapy that focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to mental health challenges. Psychiatrists who provide CBT can be particularly valuable when your condition may benefit from both therapy *and* medication, such as depression, anxiety, OCD, ADHD or PTSD. However, some psychiatrists choose to focus primarily on medication management rather than ongoing therapy. When evaluating potential psychiatrists, it can be helpful to confirm that they actively incorporate CBT techniques into their practice (rather than focusing solely on prescribing medication)
What is the difference between CBT with a psychiatrist versus a therapist?
The primary difference between CBT with a psychiatrist versus a therapist is that a psychiatrist can integrate medication management with CBT treatment, while non-psychiatrist therapists (such as psychologists, counselors, or social workers) provide CBT without the ability to prescribe medications. In a CBT session with a psychiatrist, you will work on the same core techniques as you would with any CBT provider, such as identifying cognitive distortions or challenging negative thought patterns. However, a psychiatrist can also monitor how medication affects your symptoms. This integrated approach can be especially helpful for conditions like major depression or bipolar disorder, where medication often works together with therapy to produce better outcomes than either treatment alone.
Should I see a psychiatrist or therapist for CBT?
The choice to see a psychiatrist or therapist depends on the severity of your symptoms and whether medication might be part of your treatment plan. A psychiatrist who provides CBT is appropriate when you have more severe mental health symptoms that may require medication. A non-psychiatrist therapist may be appropriate when your symptoms are mild to moderate, you prefer to try therapy without medication first, or you are already stable on medication prescribed by another provider. It is worth noting that psychiatrists typically charge higher rates than other therapists due to their medical training, and psychiatry sessions are not always covered by insurance. Therefore, some people start with a therapist for CBT and later add a psychiatrist to their treatment team if medication becomes necessary.
