My role is to sit with you, listen carefully, and help straighten out the things that feel complicated. Together, we’ll look at what’s working, what’s weighing you down, and what tools might make things feel lighter. I don’t approach every patient the same way. Some patients need structure and clear strategies, others do better with space to process, and many need a combination of both. We'll work together to figure out what feels right, whether that’s medication, therapy, or a combination.
I try to bring the same mix of professionalism and humanity that I would want if I were the one sitting across from a doctor.
