I work with adult men and women to better understand and regulate strong emotions, cope with life stressors, and learn to manage the effects of mental illness and trauma on their daily lives so that they can reach and maintain their full potential and work toward their own personal goals. I am trained in psychopharmacology (medication management) as well as a number of psychotherapies (psychodynamic, CBT, DBT, MBT, staged treatment of trauma, prolonged exposure, and family therapy).
I offer a customized, thoughtful and collaborative approach to diagnosis and treatment for each individual and will coordinate with other care providers to ensure the whole person's needs are addressed. I am also available for diagnostic consultations.
I realize that choosing a psychiatrist or therapist is a highly personal endeavor. I encourage you to call or come in for an initial visit to see if I could be of help to you and if you feel that we would be a good fit working together. I welcome your feedback as to how I can best meet your needs!
