"I approach psychiatric treatments as a collaborative effort between myself and patients. This relationship involves people from diverse backgrounds and ethnicities. The initial intention for a client seeking treatment is an important part of this therapeutic relationship. The significance of treatment for them is very crucial at every stage of care. Many people experience anxiety and stigmatization when seeking psychiatric services. In my clinical practice, I ensure my patients are relaxed and feel safe"

I am committed to helping people work towards relief from emotional difficulties and towards reaching their best potentials. To do so, I focus on learning about you as an individual rather than focusing on one or two symptoms in isolation. In every encounter, my goal is to understand where you are coming from by listening carefully and without assigning "good" or "bad" labels. When that understanding is gained, I find the most appropriate and helpful tools to help, whether it's therapy, medications or both.
