I am a Yale-trained, double board-certified child/adolescent and adult psychiatrist offering psychotherapy ("talk therapy") as well as medication management to those who need it. I take a holistic approach to mental health and always consider biological, psychological, social, and environmental factors in formulating the antecedents and possible solutions to your distress. I am best known for being warm, nonjudgmental, and having a big sense of humor. As a musician myself, I can connect well with those who gravitate toward the arts.
