My ideal client is an adult seeking compassionate, evidence-based medication management. I specialize in treating survivors of human trafficking and gender-based violence, as well as women navigating psychiatric conditions during the pre-, peri-, and postnatal periods. I also treat a wide range of conditions including mood and anxiety disorders, insomnia, eating disorders, and psychotic disorders. In addition to clinical care, I provide forensic psychiatric evaluations. I rarely prescribe benzodiazepines or stimulants and do not perform disability evaluations for new patients.
I am a psychiatrist specializing in adult care and forensic psychiatry, offering telehealth services for convenience and accessibility. I provide flexible scheduling, including evening appointments, to accommodate working professionals and individuals with busy lives.
I take the time to truly listen to my patients, ensuring that every evaluation and session feels unhurried and thorough. My approach centers on understanding each person’s unique story and needs—because often, being heard is the first step toward healing.
