I focus on providing a comprehensive medical assessment, medication management, psychoeducation, wellness, and alternative therapies. My approach is collaborative, and I have a strong interest in functional medicine and alternative therapies. I have also taught seminars in differential diagnosis, alternative therapies, and psychopharmacology.

I am board certified in adult psychiatry and have been practicing psychiatry for more than 40 years.

I also worked at a clinic providing care to indigent patients, which was also a training site for graduate psychology students. I have supervised and taught psychiatric residents and psychology trainees.

I take great pride in forming meaningful connections with my patients and listening to their concerns. I rely on evidence-based treatments to guide pharmacotherapy decisions, and in addition to medication management, I incorporate supportive psychotherapy and psychodynamic psychotherapy techniques in my visits. When appropriate, I will refer patients for further psychotherapy and collaborate with therapists to provide more comprehensive care. I believe in building a strong therapeutic relationship that empowers patients to join in a collaborative discussion for optimizing their individual treatment plans and reaching their defined goals.

I believe in a comprehensive approach to treatment that integrates medications, therapy, and lifestyle interventions. While medications can be very effective, I view them as just one part of a broader treatment plan tailored to each patient's needs. I emphasize individualized care and see treatment as a team effort, meeting patients where they are and progressing at a pace they feel ready for. I strive to create a warm, collaborative environment that fosters open communication and genuine connection.

For me, success is always shared: when patients succeed, we succeed together; when challenges arise, we regroup and move forward together.
