I serve individuals seeking thoughtful, comprehensive psychiatric care in a supportive and collaborative environment. My practice specializes in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, trauma, stress-related conditions, and other behavioral health concerns affecting adolescents, adults, and older adults.
I believe that effective mental health treatment begins with understanding the whole person—not just a diagnosis. I listen, evaluate, and develop individualized treatment plans that align with your unique needs, goals, and lifestyle.
Whether you are navigating a new challenge, managing a long-standing condition, or seeking support during a life transition, my goal is to help you gain clarity, stability, and confidence while improving your overall quality of life.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
