I am a double board-certified psychiatrist with over a decade of experience in adult, child, and adolescent psychiatry. My background in diverse clinical settings has fostered a nuanced, deep understanding of mental health, allowing me to identify subtle factors that often lead to treatment resistance. I am committed to delivering compassionate, individualized care that addresses your unique needs. My practice provides a warm, safe, and collaborative environment where we work together to navigate life's challenges. My goal is to provide a comprehensive roadmap toward healing, helping you restore balance and emotional well being.
I specialize in treating a wide range of conditions, including anxiety, depression, insomnia, ADHD, eating disorders, PTSD, OCD, bipolar disorder, hoarding, and schizophrenia. I combine a deep understanding of psychopathology with child development insights to create personalized treatment plans that support you or your family.
I offer conservative, evidence-based medication management integrated with psychotherapy. I carefully weigh the benefits of all treatment modalities to optimize your outcomes and foster joyful living. I am currently accepting new patients and welcome you to contact our office to schedule an appointment. I look forward to supporting you on your journey.
