About
I am a very experienced, Board Certified Adult psychiatrist who has worked in a broad range of treatment settings including public, private, and academic medical centers. My approach to treatment can best be understood by following the course of my education. I first studied biochemistry, where I learned to appreciate the importance of rigorous clinical research, ongoing education, and the power of medications. I then studied clinical psychology, where the focus was on understanding relationships, personalities, and cultures.
My focus is on whole person health involving not only traditional medication and psychotherapy approaches but also balanced diet, exercise & sleep. I earned my first Bachelor's degree in biochemistry at UC Davis, and my second in clinical psychology at CSU Sacramento. I received my MD and MPH in International Health from Tulane University in New Orleans.
My psychiatry residency was completed at California Pacific Medical Center in San Francisco, where I served as chief resident. In my first six years out of residency I taught and worked in a variety of settings while maintaining a large outpatient practice.
