Bipolar Disorder Psychiatrists in California

I foster an inclusive, nonjudgmental environment where patients feel safe to be themselves. I approach care with curiosity, compassion, and deep respect for each person's unique story, aiming to help individuals feel genuinely heard and supported throughout their treatment journey. In early sessions, I work collaboratively to understand patients' lives, goals, and challenges. While my focus is medication management, I integrate cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and supportive techniques. I may recommend additional therapy as needed and particularly value working with youth and adults from diverse backgrounds.

I am board-certified in both adult and child & adolescent psychiatry. Originally from California, I earned my medical degree from University College Cork in Ireland and completed residency and fellowship at Emory University.

I am a member of several professional organizations including AACAP, APA, and WPATH.

I have experience treating adult patients of all ages in multiple treatment settings including outpatient clinics, inpatient hospitals, and emergency departments.

I primarily focus on medication management for general psychiatric conditions. My approach is individualized, ensuring that each patient receives a treatment plan tailored to their unique needs. I integrate supportive therapy, medications, and evidence-based alternative therapies to provide a flexible and comprehensive approach. In addition to my general practice, I maintain a psychodynamic psychotherapy panel where I help patients explore developmental and relational patterns that contribute to their symptoms. My specialties include treating depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders, PTSD, insomnia, bipolar disorder, and ADHD.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist.

During the first visit, patients can expect a one-hour comprehensive intake during which I thoroughly evaluate their symptoms, medical history, and personal goals. I provide treatment options that prioritize flexibility, allowing patients to take an active role in their care. Follow-up visits typically last 20 to 30 minutes, focusing on assessing treatment progress and making necessary adjustments. For those engaged in psychodynamic psychotherapy, longer one-hour sessions are available for in-depth exploration of underlying psychological patterns.

In conjunction with medication management, I use interpersonal neurobiology to help clients understand triggers as well as methods to calm overactive stress responses and reactivity.
