I am passionate about helping other people improve their health and have dedicated my nursing career toward continually achieving this goal. I am honored to have been a registered nurse for 17 years, with most of that time spent in a major metropolitan hospital responding to medical emergencies as part of the facility’s Rapid Response Team. After gaining a wealth of experience performing rapid assessments and thus improving the physiological and mental health needs of patients in crisis, it made sense for me to evolve and find a niche that focused solely on psychiatric-mental health nursing.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist and psychoanalyst. I specialize in medical treatment and psychotherapy for depression, anxiety, anger issues, self-esteem issues, challenges with emotional intimacy, problems coping with stress, and obsessions. These symptoms often present themselves when individuals describe feeling "stuck" in their lives. They may have difficulties avoiding repetitive and unhealthy patterns that cause emotional turmoil and distress. I have found it is most therapeutic and cost-effective to provide psychotherapy combined with medication management (when appropriate).

Does it matter what gender a psychiatrist is?
Psychiatrists are trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of mental health conditions, often using a combination of psychotherapy and medication management. While psychiatrists of all genders are equally qualified, the therapeutic relationship is central to effective care, and finding a provider with whom you feel comfortable is an essential part of the process.
What are the advantages of seeing a male psychiatrist?
For some individuals, working with a male psychiatrist may play an important role in building trust and ease within that relationship. Personal, cultural, or past experiences may shape this preference. Some people feel more comfortable discussing certain topics with a male provider, particularly if they’ve had positive experiences confiding in men in other areas of their lives. Others may seek out a male psychiatrist for support with issues that relate specifically to male identity—such as navigating societal expectations around masculinity, fatherhood, or addressing emotional expression in environments where vulnerability may be discouraged.
How to find a male psychiatrist
Psychology Today’s online directory allows users to search for psychiatrists by gender, making it easy to find male psychiatrists (MDs) and psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs). Each provider profile includes key information such as clinical specialties, therapeutic approach, licensure, accepted insurance plans, languages spoken, and session fees. These details can help you evaluate whether a provider is a good fit for your needs.
