I understand how exhausting it can feel to struggle with depression, OCD or PTSD especially when you have already tried medications or therapy and still don’t feel like yourself. I am a board‑certified psychiatrist and distinguished fellow of the American Psychiatric Association, with many years of experience helping adults find relief and rebuild their lives. Drawing on my background in both academic medicine and private practice, I take time to listen, understand your story, and create a treatment plan that feels safe and doable for you.
I specialize in advanced treatments for adults with depression, OCD, and PTSD. I offer Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), an FDA‑approved treatment with strong results for treatment‑resistant major depression, along with thoughtful medication management and Spravato. We are the only office certified to perform the SAINT accelerated TMS treatment in OC
Living with depression, OCD or PTSD can make each day feel heavier, especially if you’ve already tried treatment and still don’t feel better. You don’t have to navigate this alone. If you’re ready to explore options like TMS, Spravato, or a new approach to medication, I’d be glad to listen and help you consider next steps.

Together, we'll decide on a treatment plan that fits your needs and comfort level. Over time, I'll work closely with you to monitor progress, adjust treatment as needed, and sup
