My ideal clients are adults and veterans who are battling depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, or other psychiatric conditions — especially those who have tried treatments before without finding lasting relief. Many veterans come to me navigating the invisible wounds of service: PTSD, moral injury, sleep disturbances, and mood disorders that have gone unaddressed for too long. I also assist veterans seeking psychiatric DBQ exams for their disability claims. At T.H. Mental Health Services and Blissful Essence in Springfield, IL, my approach is personalized and unhurried — I listen deeply, build trust, and create a care plan t
I specialize in medication management, TMS therapy (ExoMind), and Spravato (esketamine) for treatment-resistant depression, and psychiatric DBQ exams for veterans. As a dual board-certified adult and child psychiatrist, I bring advanced, evidence-based treatments to adults and veterans in Springfield, IL who deserve more than a one-size-fits-all approach.
You have carried enough on your own. Whether you are a veteran who has never felt fully understood by the system, or an adult who has tried to push through and is finally ready to ask for help — this is a safe place to start. You do not have to have all the answers to reach out. I do. Let's find the right path forward together.

No two plans look alike — because no two people are alike. We start with a thorough evaluation, then build your path forward together. That may mean the right medication combination, TMS therapy or Spravato — an FDA-approved nasal treatment delivering relief for treatment-resistant depression, sometimes within hours. You will always know why we are trying something and and what to expect next.

From your very first visit, you will be heard — not rushed. I take time to understand your full history before recommending any treatment. If medication management is the right fit, we build a plan that works for your life. For those who have not responded to antidepressants, I offer TMS therapy through ExoMind and Spravato (esketamine) — two of the most advanced, FDA-approved treatments available
