If you're looking to manage any of the following: depression, anxiety, OCD, mood swings, trauma, or DP/DR symptoms, my services can help. I'm a psychiatrist (MD) and my experience includes five years at one the largest university counseling centers in the country, private practice, community clinics, and working with veterans. What I offer: unhurried visits, thoughtful treatment discussions, collaboration, and a focus on meeting your personal goals. I'm well-informed about medications, as well as other options ranging from therapy to complementary/natural approaches. Please note: I am 'out-of-network' with insurances at this time.
I only offer telehealth at this time, which you may like for convenience and privacy. I offer early morning and evening appointments that can work for your schedule. Sessions are informed by sound therapy principles, self-activation techniques and healthy lifestyle education. I can also prescribe medicine when it's agreed upon as a helpful part of treatment.
I am ABPN board-certified in psychiatry, with experience in multiple settings. If you'd like to learn more about me and my services, you can call for a free 15 minute consultation where you will speak with me directly. That way, you can get a sense of me, my treatment approach, and we can review whether my practice can meet your needs.
