You may be seeking help with anxiety, depression, trauma, or changes in mood, sleep, and concentration. Perhaps treatment has helped only partly, or you feel stuck in patterns you want to understand. I work with people who want thoughtful psychiatric care and a fuller picture of what may be affecting them. Together, we’ll look at your symptoms, health, experiences, and goals to find a path forward that fits your life.
I’m a board-certified psychiatrist and family physician, board-certified in addiction medicine, and a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner (MSCP). I offer psychiatric evaluation and medication management, with psychotherapy when appropriate. I’m especially interested in how perimenopause and menopause affect mental health.
You don’t have to figure everything out before asking for help. I aim to offer care that is compassionate, collaborative, and direct. If my approach resonates with you, reach out to schedule a complimentary 15-minute consultation. We can discuss what you’re looking for and whether my practice is a good fit.

I draw from Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, CBT, DBT, and other approaches based on your needs. We'll begin by understanding what brings you in and what you hope will change. Together, we can explore patterns, make sense of difficult experiences, and build practical ways to respond differently. I'll be compassionate and direct, and we'll move at a pace that feels manageable.
