Reaching out for help isn’t always easy, but it can be the first step toward feeling like yourself again. I work with young people and adults who want to better understand what’s behind their stress, anxiety, or low mood—not just manage symptoms, but uncover the full story of what’s affecting their mental health.
My approach is warm, curious, and collaborative. Together, we’ll look at all possible causes, from life stress and relationships, to habits, sleep, and the ways you cope when things feel overwhelming. My goal is to help you connect the dots and find realistic ways to feel more balanced, present, and in control.

I believe we function at our highest capacity when there is balance in mental, psychological, physical, social as well as in spiritual health.

I believe for best outcomes, application of both pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy are all it takes. Let's start a better mental health journey together.

Since the beginning of my career, I have gained knowledge and expertise as a healthcare provider in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I excel in providing care to a variety of individuals, including emergency, intensive care, medical-surgical, correctional, and psychiatric populations. While supporting my patients in overcoming their physical and emotional challenges, I developed a passion for working with individuals struggling with mental health disorders and and thoroughly enjoy educating & empowering my patients to strengthen their mental health throughout their healing journey.

I have been in private practice since 1985. I am a general adult psychiatrist and see those age 13 and older. I am one of the "dinosaurs" who still do psychotherapy as well as medication. I see individuals, couples, and families. Although the majority of my patients see me for mood disorders and anxiety, I have had a special interest in eating disorders since training. My practice has solely been outpatient for many years, thus inpatient care would have to be transferred temporarily to another physician. (note: I am an out-of-network provider; fees range from $140-320, depending on service, see below.)

You look like you’re holding it all together, but inside you’re tired, anxious, or running on fumes. The shorter days make it harder to focus, and old stress or trauma keeps resurfacing. Maybe burnout, ADHD, or anxiety have left you feeling stuck — juggling too much, sleeping too little, and thinking, “I should be doing better than this.” You don’t have to keep pushing. Relief, calm, and clarity are still possible — and you don’t have to find them alone.
