I treat children, adolescents, and adults with a variety of psychiatric diagnoses, though I also work with some patients who do not fit into rigid diagnostic criteria. Sports psychiatry is a specialty of mine, and I work with athletes at various levels (K-12, collegiate, professional) to address specific sports-related stressors and experiences that severely impact performance and mental health.
