If you’re struggling with ADHD,anxiety, depression, mood swings, OCD, effective treatment is available — and you don’t have to wait months for help. I am a psychiatrist providing comprehensive evaluations and medication management for adults, focused on accurate diagnosis and clear, practical treatment plans. I am currently accepting new patients and am in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield,Aetna, and Medicare, making care accessible and affordable.
I specialize in adult psychiatry, treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, insomnia, burnout, and mood disorders through evidence-based medication management combined with supportive therapy. As a Medical Director with experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings, I am comfortable managing complex cases while maintaining a calm, collaborative approach.
Reaching out for help can feel difficult, especially when you’ve been carrying so much on your own. You don’t have to go through it alone. I strive to create a calm, supportive space where you feel heard and understood without judgment. If you’re ready for things to feel different, I welcome you to take that first step toward healing and balance.
