Anxiety Psychiatrists in Connecticut

I am an adult, child, and adolescent psychiatrist. I am passionate about my work and understand the impact of mental illnesses in daily life activities and in the family system. I have experience treating children and adults with anxiety, depression, OCD, PTSD, ADHD, dementia, and more. I utilize medication management in conjunction with emotional and supportive therapy in 30-minute follow-up visits. I work with each patient in an individualized manner and tailor personalized treatment plans that may include pharmacological treatment. In addition, I may recommend including a therapist in your care team to provide the best outcome.

I am originally from Guayaquil, Ecuador, and am bilingual in Spanish and English. I earned my medical degree from Universidad de Guayaquil in Ecuador and then participated in a medical program at The William J. Harrington Training Program for Latin America and the Caribbean, at Jackson Memorial Hospital, an affiliate of the University of Miami in Florida. Afterwards, I completed my adult psychiatry residency at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, Bronx Care Health System, and my fellowship in child and adolescent psychiatry at Northwell Health in New York. I have experience working in various settings, including inpatient, outpatient, and emergency departments. I have submitted and presented work to the American Psychiatric Association and have also collaborated on a book publication.

At the heart of my clinical approach is a strong emphasis on establishing trust, rapport, and therapeutic alliance to help persons to feel and live well and to progress toward their goals, both in treatment and in life. I begin with consultation, a compassionate, collaborative process of discovery that culminates in a working diagnostic impression and, in turn, treatment recommendations. For those with whom I engage in a treatment relationship, I provide psychoeducation, medication management, and individual psychotherapy, this last modality predominantly drawing from both psychodynamic and behavioral psychological models to tailor treatment to each patient. On some occasions, I may believe that additional therapy is needed and ask that you bring a therapist into your care team to provide the best outcome.

I then served as a psychiatry professor at the Florida Atlantic University Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine in Florida, where, as Associate Director of the Psychiatry Residency Training Program, I provided psychiatric inpatient treatment while bringing leadership, scholarship, teaching, supervision, and mentoring to psychiatry residents and medical students.
