I am a board-certified adult psychiatrist dedicated to providing thorough, personalized, and compassionate care. I treat people with various mental health concerns, including but not limited to anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, personality disorders, substance dependence, and ADHD. I am passionate about working with survivors of trauma/PTSD, as well as women throughout the perinatal period.
In addition to medication evaluation and management, I see some patients for regular psychotherapy visits. I practice primarily through a psychodynamic lens but incorporate other approaches as indicated. I am interested in understanding your unique story. I believe that together we can make sense of what you have been struggling with.
My practice style is collaborative, warm, and genuine. I hope to help you live a richer and more fulfilling life. To schedule a consultation, visit my website or call (619) 494-0507.
