I bring a unique perspective to psychiatric mental health with over ten years of experience in high-acuity critical care. My background in ICUs across America gives me a deep understanding of the connection between the brain and the body, and shapes the holistic approach I take with every patient.
I see patients ages 15 and up, and I especially love working with older adults and with moms who feel overwhelmed by the demands of motherhood.
My clinical focus is mood disorders, anxiety, OCD, and ADHD. I offer medication management and/or TMS. I can see Swiss-German-speaking patients in their native language.
Outside of work, you can find me at the playground with my kids or hunting down the best local coffee shops.
I believe mental wellness is the foundation of a healthy life and is best supported when we care for the mind, body, and lifestyle together. Your story matters, and my approach is built on active listening and collaboration.
