I specialize in ADHD in women and complex trauma. I'm a board-certified adult psychiatrist and have been in practice for 17 years. During this time, I have come to recognize that ADHD and complex trauma often go hand-in-hand. Complete care for Adult ADHD often means addressing the complexities and co-occuring conditions that come with having a condition that can impact every aspect of life.
If you have ADHD, my approach is strengths-based and we work together to find solutions that line up with who you are and how you work.
I offer combination treatment (medications management combined with individual psychotherapy) and medication management visits. Combination treatment means working closely together to address active psychiatric conditions as well as deeper issues such as self-esteem, shame, emotion regulation, disconnection, identity and relationship struggles.
I love to support women during life transitions. I have also held leadership roles within mental health organizations which helps inform my work with women who are facing career challenges. I also love to work with and support healthcare workers and mental health professionals.
