I provide psychiatric evaluations, medication management and consultation as well as psychotherapy for children, adolescents and adults. I also work with other providers who are providing psychotherapy where I would manage the psychiatric medications of the patient. I believe in working together with all providers as a team.
I am a Stanford University trained child, adolescent and adult psychiatrist and Board Certified in Psychiatry and Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. We will work together to get a very thorough assessment and treatment plan with emphasis on following best evidence based practices. I consider myself conservative with medications but also believe their role.
I believe in working in an empathic and patient centered way. Working on your mental health can be a difficult process and I am am here to help you or your child through this process.
