My goal is to create a safe, warm and compassionate space for my patients. I provide both short term and long term psychotherapy and medication management, if needed. In my work, I aim to delve beyond diagnostic labels to uncover the core issues underlying clinical symptoms. This process acknowledges each individual’s unique experience and helps minimize reliance on medications. My clinical expertise includes working with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, perfectionism, grief, life transitions, chronic physical illnesses, workplace burnout, academic stress and immigrant, expat and minority stress.
In addition, I provide in depth assessments and consultations for complex psychiatric conditions where diagnostic clarification is needed, or when mental health issues co-occur with medical and neurological illnesses.
I am board-certified in psychiatry and currently a psychoanalytic candidate at the Psychoanalytic Center of the Carolinas. I am trained in psychodynamic therapy, as well as CBT and Acceptance and Commitment therapy. It is an honor for me to support my patients in their journey of healing and personal growth.

The most important factor in determining the success of psychotherapy is the "fit" between therapist and client. Therefore, during your initial session(s) with me, I will invite you to consider if you feel heard and understood, and if you feel safe accessing and sharing difficult thoughts and feelings with me.
