Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, anger, or isolation? Perhaps you’re feeling stuck and yearning for positive change. A life with happiness is what we want, and we need to eliminate obsession, anxiety, and depression to achieve our goals. Through collaboration with patients who seek positive results, the use of psychotherapy and perhaps medication, just starts with one conversation.
As a lifetime New Yorker with a degree from NYU Medical school, I trained at Montefiore Hospital where I was selected chief resident and followed with a fellowship in Consultation Psychiatry. I have served on the staff of New York Hospital and The Hospital for Special Surgery. To reach out I write articles relevant to clinical psychiatry.
After a thorough initial assessment I offer recommendations based on your treatment goals. I pride myself as a psychiatrist who gives my patients time and care throughout the process. I am happy to do telephone, FaceTime, video, and in-office consultation. I look forward to hearing from you and to assessing your needs.
