Using a holistic empathetic approach I have helped hundreds of patients over the years with medication and/or psychotherapy to have more stable and fulfilling lives. I have extensive experience in sophisticated psychiatric evaluation and treatment in my private practice.. I help my patients collaboratively with problems such as mood disorders, anxiety, eating issues, ADHD and substance abuse.. I work with patients using state of the art medication approaches and practical, effective psychotherapy including psychodynamic, CBT, motivational therapy and harm reduction approaches as well as working towards abstinence goals.
I specialize in integrated psychopharmacology and psychotherapy treatment for all psychiatric illnesses including all types of addiction problems. I include buprenorphine in my treatment approaches. I was on the faculty for many years at the Rockefeller University and NYP-Weill Cornell Medical Center. I often collaborate closely with other practitioners.
I listen carefully to prioritize the patient’s concerns and to understand why they are seeking treatment. I try to clearly explain options and all the risks versus benefits involved.

I like to use the treatment type that seems like the best fit for a particular person. It's not one size fits all. Patients have ideas about what they want that have to be melded with my expertise . I don't want to impose a treatment that a patient doesn't want.
