I am a board certified psychiatrist skilled in prescribing medications and working in psychotherapy. I combine a warm demeanor with excellent clinical skills, and have over 15 years' experience working with adult patients of all ages and many walks of life. I have special expertise combining medication and psychotherapy to help patients reduce symptoms and grow as individuals. My additional training and experience in psychological modes of treatment enhance the quality of care I provide to all my patients, to meet them where they are and prioritize their individual needs and goals. I also provide medication management-only treatments for people who aren't looking for psychotherapy or who already have therapists.

I completed my psychiatric residency at Columbia University Medical Center in New York. I also completed psychoanalytic training at the Columbia Center for Psychoanalytic Training and Research, and went on to teach classes at the Center, educating candidates about the nuances of combining psychotherapy with other treatment modalities.

I chose the field of psychiatry with the goal of empowering my patients and equipping them with the skills and tools to improve their mental health. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where patients feel heard and supported, and to destigmatize mental illness and normalize seeking help when struggling. My passion for psychiatry stems from a deep interest in connecting with people and understanding their unique stories.

I believe the patient-physician relationship should be a partnership, built on trust, empathy, and shared goals. I encourage honesty, collaboration, and open communication, and believe there are no wrong questions, and your voice matters. I encourage questions and feedback and tailor care to each person's goals, comfort level, and pace. I want to get to know the whole person, not just their symptoms. Together, I work with patients to create a personalized and thoughtful treatment plan that may include therapy, lifestyle support, and/or medication, always with room to adjust based on your evolving needs and preferences.

While assessing my patients with the biopsychosocial model, I treat with evidence-based treatment. I utilize therapeutic techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy and psychodynamic therapy in conjunction with medication for optimal results.

I graduated from Boston Medical Center Brighton, Massachusetts, from the Department of Psychiatry. I received my training in Interventional Psychiatry including ECT and TMS at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, a Harvard University Teaching Hospital. I have multiple publications in research.
