Hello! I am a board certified psychiatrist with over 30 years of clinical experience in a wide variety of settings. I have most recently worked for a well-known substance use disorder treatment center in Rancho Mirage, but have experience in outpatient practice, consultation/liaison psychiatry, utilization review and in the distant past inpatient psychiatry.
I believe medications can be part of a treatment plan for the treatment of psychiatric conditions such as mood and anxiety disorders, trauma related disorders, ADHD/ADD, and substance use disorders. I also believe it is important to know the patient well enough to know if they are presenting with situationally mediated symptoms that may not need medication.
If you are looking for a psychiatrist who will take the time to get to know you and remember the story of who you are, please reach out to schedule an intake assessment. I have passion for what I do, and my patient's tell me they can tell!
