My belief is that the goal of psychiatric treatment is to ease the distress & suffering of someone who is going through mental health difficulties, freeing the person to be their full selves and engage in life in a rich and fulfilling way. If we choose to work with each other, what I will strive to provide in each session is support, insight, and recommendations which will always be given spirit of collaboration
Most of us will experience the need for mental health support at some point in our lives. I strive to provide support, insight, and avenues for change through psychotherapy, medication, practical interventions, emotional support, and understanding.
I believe that thoughtfulness and kindness are the cornerstones of effective psychiatric practice. If you schedule a session with me, I promise to listen carefully and empathically to what you have to say and only suggest treatments after coming to understand your thoughts, feelings and experiences.
