I am a survivor of polio and childhood bullying, experiences that strengthened my resilience and inspired my lifelong dedication to mental health care. Beginning my Psychiatry journey in 1994 as a physician in India and later serving as a nurse practitioner in Georgia since 2012, I bring over 30 years of combined experience. Trained at Kennesaw State University and the University of Cincinnati, I provide holistic, patient-centered care that integrates evidence-based medication management with therapeutic support. As a member of the Golden Key International Honor Society and Sigma Theta Tau, I strive to create asafe, supportive space
I provide medication management and brief therapy for individuals between the ages of 6 and 65 for ADHD/ADD, autism, childhood trauma, anxiety, panic, depression, loss/grief, OCD, personality disorders, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, Suboxone/Naltrexone Rx for opioid/opiate/Alcohol dependence, anger, and many other undiagnosed mental health conditions.
At East Cobb Psychiatry LLC, we understand that reaching out for support is rarely a simple decision. For many people, it comes after weeks, months, or even years of carrying more than anyone should have to bear alone. When the moment feels right, East Cobb Psychiatry LLC is here to walk with you, to listen with care, and to help you move toward clarity.

I am pleased to share that I am now seeing patients on the'Headway & Grow' telepsychiatry platform. I serve individuals aged 6 to 65, providing care for ADHD/ADD, anxiety, depression, mood swings, psychosis, and Naltrexone/Suboxone Rx. For patients prescribed controlled substances, they need to have an established relationship with a primary care doctor/pediatrician and send their medical records.
