I am a board certified adult psychiatrist who completed my training at Allegheny General hospital in Pittsburgh. I am fellowship-trained in Child and Adolescent psychiatry from Western Psychiatric institute and Clinic of UPMC. Originally from India, where I completed my medical degree, my academic pursuits led me to Toronto, Canada where I worked as a research Coordinator for clinical trials in Cognitive Neurology, then to Albuquerque, New Mexico where I completed my internship and finally to Pittsburgh which I am proud to call home!
I take a comprehensive ,evidence based and holistic approach to patient care and have a special interest in the treatment of various mental health disorders which include depression, Bipolar illness, OCD,ADHD and PTSD. My goal is to meet my patients (both children and adults) where they are and work with them together to obtain the best treatment outcomes.
I believe that the "journey of a thousand miles begins with one step"and I sincerely hope to create an environment where my patients feel supported and understood.Along with psychiatric medication management, I provide supportive psychotherapy and lifestyle interventions incaring for my patients.
