I am a board-certified Family Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and a Clinical Social Worker. I graduated from Columbia School of Social Work with a MSW and Yale University with a MSN.

I am a board-certified Assistant Professor of Psychiatry and neuroscientist at Columbia University with expertise in treating a range of mental health problems, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, OCD, PTSD, adult ADHD, substance use, and psychosis. I work collaboratively with patients to develop a treatment approach that incorporates psychotherapy and/or medications. My specializations include psychodynamic psychotherapy balanced with pragmatic and behavioral approaches. In addition, I specialize in managing multiple medications, providing a careful assessment of each medication and coordinating their interactions.

Though dually board certified in both Adult Psychiatry and Child/Adolescent Psychiatry, my expertise lies in college students and adults suffering from anxiety (social or generalized anxiety, panic, OCD), depression, and/or dealing with significant life stressors or changes. I pride myself in risk assessments, and in discerning accurate diagnoses, thereby helping recognize normal patterns and behaviors from those more pathological. Whether virtual or in-person, I work with patients (and their families if warranted) to holistically address their concerns, and collectively develop effective interventions and treatment modalities.

I have a strong psychopharmacologic background as well as a special interest in psychotherapy. I treat patients keeping in mind the impact of social, psychological, and behavioral factors on general health and quality of life. I have a wealth of experience in treating various disorders including but not limited to Depression, Anxiety, OCD, Bipolar disorder and Schizophrenia. I emphasize on helping people heal and not just treat them as diagnostic cases. I am passionate about removing the stigma associated with mental illness and treating the mind and body as a whole entity.

Quality mental health care is vital to overall health and well-being. It is important for this care to be personalized and designed around each person’s unique experiences, needs, and priorities. I partner with patients to evaluate mental health concerns and develop a comprehensive treatment plan that includes education, counseling, medication management, and positive lifestyle change.
