ADHD Psychiatrists in New York

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 completed my medical training at the University of Georgia/Augusta University Medical Partnership. While in medical school, I received a Master of Business Administration at the University of Georgia. I then moved to North Carolina to complete my psychiatric residency training at the Brody School of Medicine/ECU Health Medical Center. During my training, I gained extensive clinical experience working with adults and veterans in psychiatric inpatient, outpatient, and emergency settings. I also served as a chief resident of the psychiatry program and published several case studies.

I will conduct a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation and take time to understand each patient's individual concerns, mental health goals, and history.

I begin each encounter with gentle curiosity, inviting patients to share their stories without fear of judgment. Together, I craft an individualized treatment plan with the patient that may include medication, psychotherapy, and/or referrals to subspecialty care, always in close collaboration with other members on the treatment team. My therapeutic orientation is informed by psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, and dialectical behavior modalities. I have expertise in the treatment of a diverse range of mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, OCD, and PTSD. I use a developmentally informed and LGBTQ-affirmative approach in my practice, with the aim of enriching meaning and alleviating suffering in the domains of work, play, and love.

Prior to joining Talkiatry, I was an Assistant Professor of Clinical Psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania, where I provided clinical care and teaching along the undergraduate-graduate medical education continuum.

I believe in the importance of getting to know each patient as a whole and of understanding the unique experiences that bring them to treatment. I collaborate with my patients to create personalized treatment plans and consider both medication and non-medication options. I have experience in a wide range of diagnoses and patient populations, with particular interest in anxiety, depression, PTSD, and substance use disorders, as well as the child and adolescent, college, BIPOC, and LBGTQIA+ populations.

I create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where patients feel comfortable sharing their experiences.

My approach emphasizes tailoring care to each person's unique needs and goals to promote long-term wellness. I have a strong background in treating a wide range of mental health conditions, including mood disorders, anxiety disorders, and ADHD.

I begin each therapeutic relationship with a thorough assessment of the patient's history, symptoms, and goals. I work collaboratively to develop an individualized treatment plan that may include medication management, lifestyle strategies, and coordination with therapists or other healthcare providers. I regularly review progress, adjust treatment plans as needed, and encourage patients to take an active role in their care and decision-making.

I am a licensed psychiatrist with over 15 years of experience providing compassionate care in both outpatient and telehealth settings. I earned my medical degree from the University of Louisville and completed my psychiatry residency at the University of Kentucky. I maintain an active medical license and DEA registration.

My clinical approach is grounded in psychodynamic psychotherapy, and I continually expand my knowledge by incorporating tools from a variety of therapeutic modalities. I am fascinated with the connectedness of the conscious and subconscious mind, body, and spirit, and I approach treatment through the lens of a growth mindset. I prioritize creating a safe space where patients can strengthen their courage to be vulnerable and authentic. I view therapy as a journey of helping patients explore their inner world, where I act as a mirror in order for patients to gain insight into their motivations, patterns, values, and higher purpose.

I prefer knowing my patients on a deep level and highly value the therapeutic process, which requires patience over speed. I acknowledge that it takes many sessions before even a preliminary understanding of the human being in front of me can be formulated. I honor the truth that my patients are the experts of themselves, and I prefer empowering them over micromanagement. As subconscious patterns emerge, I highlight these, as they are often blind spots to the patient. I understand that when it comes to mental health, quick fixes are not the most appropriate or effective means to healing. However, I respect the use of medications when indicated in addition to talk therapy.

I earned a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Nicholls State University and a Master of Science in Acupuncture from Texas Health and Science University. I completed both my MD and General Psychiatry training at Texas Tech Paul Foster School of Medicine, followed by specialized training in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at the University of Texas School of Medicine.

I tailor treatment to each patient's unique needs, ensuring a comprehensive and individualized approach to care. My expertise includes treating a variety of psychiatric diagnoses, such as mood disorders, anxiety disorders (including OCD), ADHD, and PTSD. In a first visit, patients can expect a thorough evaluation, where I take the time to understand their medical history, symptoms, and treatment goals. I emphasize open communication and collaborative decision-making, ensuring that patients feel heard and supported. Based on this initial assessment, I develop a personalized treatment plan, which may include medication management and referrals to therapy or other supportive services as needed.

I finished my internship at Vanderbilt Medical Center and completed my psychiatric residency at the University of Kansas Medical Center in 2000.

My approach is to treat primarily through psychotherapy and behavioral change, with medication management serving as an important (and often essential) adjuvant to optimizing mental health. My specialty is providing behaviorally oriented trauma-informed care, and I am experienced in managing a multitude of mental health conditions. I tend to have a very casual engagement style, so expect a frank but open conversation during our first meetings. Following that initial screening, anticipate a candid discussion about my approach to your condition and an initial treatment plan. Please feel free to bring up any questions or concerns at any time during this process, and note-taking is highly encouraged!

I have been working in telehealth since 2018. After completing my training, I worked in private practice and in various roles for the Department of Veterans Affairs. I most enjoy working in the clinic because of the long-term follow-up.

I enjoy my work and include psychotherapy in my appointments. I offer medication options to treat symptoms but also work with patients to examine behaviors and defenses that may be contributing to their problems. For patients who would benefit from more extensive psychotherapy, I may refer them to a therapist and work collaboratively with that therapist. I start off with a thorough evaluation to make a diagnosis, then work with patients to determine their treatment goals and develop a treatment plan to meet those goals.

I believe individuals are more than a diagnosis and consider each patient's biology, emotions, relationships, culture, and life circumstances to understand each human as a whole. I offer individualized, well-rounded care blending medication and psychotherapy. In a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space, I partner with patients to foster greater insight into themselves, walking alongside them with compassion in their mental health journey.

I am dedicated to creating a safe, supportive space where people feel truly heard, believing good psychiatry starts with listening.
