In poignant fashion, Kermit the Frog once sang, “it’s not easy being green”. If we replace “green” with anxious, angry, sad, depressed, lonely, or hurt, we feel the truth of the lyric. But for many of us that feel “green” over time, it can start to feel like it’s not easy being “me”. Furthermore, most of the things that make us, “us”, are physically unseen; our personalities, our traumas (known or unknown), our beliefs, our emotions and thoughts. Navigating the “unseen” aspects in us is what fuels my passion in psychiatry, and to offer any support in that journey, is an honor.
I believe psychiatric care works best when the patient and provider are a team; treating the patient as a whole – mind + body. My biggest strength is being a collaborative, compassionate listener that explains complex, mental-health concepts well. I understand, I care, and I want what’s best for you and your journey so we can get you feeling better.
Being a minority, growing up struggling to find my place in this world, and witnessing my family’s own mental health challenges, is what informs my work with my patients. My goal is to listen to you, offer treatment where medication is an option but does not have to be the only option.
