I am a board-certified psychiatrist with over 25 years of experience. Proficient in both medication treatment and psychotherapy, I provide a whole-client approach. I take the time to hear the breadth and depth of your experience, and dedicate the same effort to crafting a treatment plan in a spirit of collaboration. I develop medication regimens tailored to your needs and update them as needed. I also provide both individual and family psychotherapy. I have a particular interest in making mental health care accessible to all members of our diverse community.
I work with teens and adults and address the entire breadth of mental health conditions. My knowledge base as a physician helps me address mental health symptoms within the context of your entire medical health context and I can work in concert with other medical providers to ensure seamless integration of mental and somatic healthcare.
My practice is located in downtown Silver Spring, close to the metro station and convenient to both downtown DC and the northern suburbs. I invite you contact me for a complimentary discussion of your situation and how working with me can help turn things around for you.
