Aetna Psychiatrists in Downers Grove, IL
I was drawn to advocating for those who felt unheard, ensuring they received compassionate, personalized care. My diverse experience includes working on adolescent and adult inpatient psychiatric units, serving as a psychiatric triage nurse. These roles offered valuable exposure to severe mental health challenges like suicidality, psychosis, and trauma, profoundly shaping my empathetic, precise, and advocacy-driven approach. I specialize in treating mood disorders (depression, bipolar), anxiety disorders, and ADHD.
