My work is focused on cultivating and utilizing therapeutic relationships for deep self-exploration. Expanding our conscious awareness is critical to help identify and work with the root cause(s) of our joy and suffering. A prescription pad isn't sufficient to treat complex human mind-body-heart challenges like depression, anxiety, disordered eating, OCD, or PTSD/CPTSD. Building a safe, reliable supportive psychotherapeutic relationship is as important in my work as medication. I also offer in-person Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy in San Francisco, CA only.
As a holistic psychiatrist, I see most of my patients once to twice weekly and engage in depth-oriented/trauma-informed psychotherapy along with medication management as needed. All of my standard appointments are 60 minutes in length. Ketamine sessions are 5 hrs
I offer telehealth for most visits. Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy is done in person only (CA location only). Please note that I do not utilize benzodiazepines (e.g. Xanax, Ativan, Klonopin) or stimulants (e.g. Adderall, Ritalin) as part of my regular practice. I welcome you to reach out to see if we are a good fit.
