Brookline, MA 02446
I am a Harvard-trained adult psychiatrist with a private practice in Brookline seeing adults in Massachusetts for evidenced-based medication management and therapy. I offer a warm, nonjudgmental, and empathic approach. I provide expertise in comprehensive psychiatric assessments and personalized care with you at the focus. I believe a strong therapeutic relationship is the foundation for successful treatment, and I want you to feel listened to, cared for, and understood.
I treat a broad range of psychiatric conditions, including mood disorders (depression, bipolar), anxiety and OCD, trauma and PTSD, sleep disorders, ADHD, stress, burnout, issues affecting working professionals and students (including college, graduate, law, and medical), and perinatal/women’s mental health issues.
I also specialize in psychotherapy to treat various issues: depression, anxiety, navigating life transitions, professionals managing stress and burnout in demanding fields, trauma related difficulties, “church hurt” or spiritual trauma, obesity/body image, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, sense of self/self-esteem difficulties, and perfectionism.
