Stuck in a cycle of stress, anxiety, or frustration? If you’re ready to take back control of your mental health, understand what’s really going on, and start feeling like yourself again — I will help.
With my training as Chief Resident at the University of Florida and a Master’s of Education from Harvard, I combine evidence-based care with a focus on patient education, equipping you to make informed decisions about your mental health. I offer both medication management and psychotherapy, and I treat depression, anxiety, ADHD, OCD, trauma, and much more.
I understand that each mental health condition is as unique as the individual, and treating it effectively requires a personalized approach. I also know life can be busy, so I offer flexible appointment hours, including evenings and weekends. Taking the first step can feel difficult, but I’m here to provide support in a compassionate, judgment-free space.
