I am a board-certified Psychiatrist with broad experience who treats adults with mental and emotional problems and difficulty coping with life stressors. I provide evidence-based treatments using medication management and/or psychotherapy tailored to my patient's needs in a safe environment with sensitivity and confidentiality. My goal is not to just treat the symptoms, but also to accurately diagnose and treat the underlying problem in order to improve functioning and quality of life.
My medication prescribing practices are safe and conservative, and are tailored to my patient's individual needs. For patient comfort and safety, I strive to find the optimal balance between the minimum dosage of medication necessary to achieve maximum efficacy. I also offer individual psychotherapy instead of or in combination with medication as needed.
