I am a board-certified psychiatrist with a career that has focused on medication management and psychotherapy tailored for adults. My comprehensive training during residency encompassed psychoanalysis and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), skills that I integrate into my clinical practice.
Following residency, I gained extensive experience in inpatient psychiatric hospitals, specializing in adult and geriatric care while serving as a psychiatric consultant. My professional journey has allowed me to collaboratively engage with individuals from diverse backgrounds, addressing a spectrum of diagnoses such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder. My commitment to inclusivity is evident in my dedication to understanding and supporting the LGBTQ community, enriched by my interactions with varied lived experiences.
Recognizing the challenge of finding a psychiatrist who not only instills comfort but also fosters understanding and active listening, I prioritize creating a welcoming and empathetic environment. While I acknowledge the importance of medications, I advocate for a holistic approach to mental health, emphasizing the multifaceted nature of the journey towards wellness.
In my practice, I collaborate closely with patients to tailor treatment plans that encompass medication, therapy, and behavioral modifications, including lifestyle adjustments like exercise and dietary changes. My goal is to empower individuals to achieve sustainable changes in thought patterns, behaviors, and coping mechanisms, enabling them to embrace life to its fullest potential.
