As a California-based psychiatrist, I believe that while mental health struggles are difficult, your unique personality and inherent virtues are the keys to achieving lasting personal growth. My role is to use my clinical expertise to guide you through a faster, more fruitful recovery process.
My primary expertise is medication management, while I also often integrate brief therapy in supporting my patients’ treatment journey. Holistic treatment planning is another strength of my practice.
My practice of Growing Minds Mental Health Services believe in empowering patients and their families with information on all available options, including nutritional support, exercise guidance, and traditional psychotherapy.
We offer flexible appointment scheduling including both in-person psychiatric care and virtual telehealth appointments for residents
My goal is to enhance your quality of life while respecting your individuality. I am honored by the trust my patients place in me and am grateful to witness their journey toward wellness.
Our practice support Mandarin, Spanish, Vietnamese. Open in evenings and weekends to support those with busy schedules as well.
