Hello, and thank you for your interest. I am a Columbia University-trained MD, PhD, and a Yale-trained, board-certified adult psychiatrist. I specialize in the treatment of depression, anxiety, substance use disorders, unusual perceptions, and distressing voice hearing. Alongside my private practice, I serve as a clinical instructor at the Yale School of Medicine. My approach to care is collaborative, evidence-based, and open-minded. As Carl Gustav Jung, MD, said, “I treat every patient as individually as possible, because the solution of the problem is always an individual one.”
I bring extensive experience in psychopharmacology and the use of genetic testing to guide and optimize treatment decisions. Additionally, I advocate for a holistic approach to recovery, encouraging clients to incorporate exercise, meditation, and spiritual practices into their healing journey.
I understand that seeking support is a meaningful step, and I am committed to guiding you toward the care and clarity you need. My practice operates as private pay to ensure highly personalized and flexible care tailored to your needs. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions. I look forward to supporting you on your journey toward well-being.
