I am a board certified psychiatrist with a specialization in addiction psychiatrist. I collaboratively work with my patients to provide the most personalized care directed toward their overall wellbeing using a holistic approach deploying all the modern tools available including but not limited to medication when appropriate, individual supportive psychotherapy, and motivational interviewing.
The goal is to craft a finely tuned individualized treatment plan to target the needs of each patient. My expertise lies in treating addiction and alcohol abuse in high functioning executives and young professionals. Each person is assessed to formulate a plan that includes treatment with medication and/or psychotherapy.
When someone has an addiction problem, they have usually started abusing substances in order to self medicate some underlying disorder. As an Addiction Psychiatrist, I specialize in both psychotherapy and medication management of Anxiety Disorders, Mood Disorders (Depression), and OCD.
