You may be feeling anxious, depressed, fearful, angry, uncomfortable in social situations, or experiencing other emotional difficulties. Perhaps someone you care about is having problems. Although psychological issues can cause upsetting thoughts and feelings, physiology (body and brain) may also play a role. An evaluation with a holistic-focused psychiatrist can help you make sense of things and find treatments that work. As a Board Certified psychiatrist for 25+ years, I have specialized training and experience in recognizing and treating emotional and medical issues. My therapeutic style is active, collaborative, and solution focused.

Mental health has always been a taboo, still we feel ashamed if we can't deal with our emotions by ourselves, and we often self-medicate by any means available from shopping, isolations to substances. Let's stop this stigma together, let's find the right help and show others the courage that I know we all have.
