Not accepting new clients
My journey began in Emergency Medicine, where I spent the first 16 years of my career. I was drawn in not by the fast pace, but the opportunity to meet someone on one of the hardest days of their life and make a difference. Later, I was called to Palliative Care, where I emphasized the importance of treating every aspect of a person’s wellbeing – psychological, spiritual, social, and physical. Those experiences shaped the way I practice today: with compassion, curiosity, and a “Patch Adams” philosophy that blends professionalism with heart.

I am currently scheduling patients for both in-person telehealth appointments. I welcome patients who are looking for medication management, therapy, a second opinion, or any combination of the above. As a psychiatrist, I firmly believe that good treatment cannot be based in medication alone, and that therapy is an integral part of the healing process. While many doctors and NPs may only prescribe medications, I offer both medication management and therapy, together, all at once. I especially welcome patients who feel that their care has been disjointed, inadequate, or those who have been labeled as "treatment resistant."

Anxiety Psychiatrists
When should I seek treatment for anxiety?
Everyone feels anxious at times, but when anxiety causes disruption to your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Such disruption can be mental, physical, or both: having fear dominate your thoughts, avoiding situations or objects that bring on feelings of anxiety, or experiencing shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, or panic attacks. When these symptoms are recurrent and distressing, it may be time to talk to someone.
What are the most common types of treatment for anxiety?
Talk therapy, particularly cognitive behavioral therapy, is the most common treatment for anxiety. Studies have shown it is equally effective as medication. Other popular forms of therapy are popular, depending on a patient’s experience. Exposure therapy, for instance, can be useful for people dealing with fears and phobias, or who have experienced traumatic events. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy may be useful for patients who need help with emotion regulation. Anxiolytic medications, like benzodiazepines, can also help with calming a person enough to focus on the skills they’ve learned, and physical exercise has been shown to help symptoms of anxiety across the board.
How long does therapy for anxiety take to work?
The amount of time needed to alleviate symptoms depends on the severity of a person’s condition. Some therapies may take 5-20 weekly sessions to show results. Anti-depressant medications typically take two to four weeks before a benefit is felt. Anti-anxiety medications are felt typically within 20-30 minutes. Medications are best used to offer a patient a better headspace in which to work on techniques learned in therapy. Exercise, improved sleep habits, and meditation are effective, but takes weeks or months to show results.
How effective is treatment for anxiety?
Treatment for anxiety has been shown to be moderately to highly effective, according to a large body of psychology studies and analyses. For some people, treatment using CBT or exposure therapy alone is effective. Others respond best to a combination of medication and therapy.
