Most of my patients need an evaluation for medication management, along with the therapy they may be receiving. In contrast to most psychiatrists, I treat substance use disorders the same way I treat other disorders. My model is chronic disease management, and most people take 1-2 years to enter long-term recovery. I also provide psychotherapy along with medication.

I often use supportive techniques as well as cognitive behavior therapy. However, my style is one of compassionate support, drawing from over 50 years of practice. Supportive, CBT, psychodynamic, MI, and humanistic styles are the most common ones upon which I draw.
