Healing is not linear. We need each other.
Connection, compassion, and deep understanding with cutting edge treatment are all important for healing ourselves.
This clinic is a safe space for lgbtqia+ and neurodivergent individuals, and people from different racial, ethnic, immigration, religious, and political backgrounds. Come as you are. You are welcome and accepted here.
I aim to provide the highest quality, evidence-based/informed evaluations and treatments in the context of genetics, brain development and environmental impacts with compassionate care and active listening. Together, we will build a strong relationship, create tailored treatment plans that serve you best, and coordinate with the rest of your healthcare team.
I am an LA native, child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist. My goal is to build healing relationships and use all available knowledge and tools to restore health, optimize function, and prevent illness. This may include a combination of prescribing or de-prescribing medication, psychotherapy, TMS, mind-body connection, and lifestyle modifications.
