ADHD Psychiatrists in New York

I use a collaborative, narrative-informed approach that centers each patient's lived experience and values. My integrative method helps individuals recognize emotional and behavioral patterns shaped by cultural, relational, and systemic factors. I am committed to providing culturally responsive and identity-affirming care, with a particular focus on immigrant communities, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and high-performance professionals. In clinical practice, I combine evidence-based medication management with appropriate psychotherapy techniques and elements of executive coaching. This comprehensive approach supports patients navigating high-pressure environments, helping them achieve greater clarity, resilience, and confidence across both personal and professional domains.

I pride myself on creating a safe and nonjudgmental space where the focus is simply on helping patients. I strive to work collaboratively with my patients to ensure that we are both on the same page when it comes to their mental healthcare.

I was born and raised in South Texas and was a teacher before becoming a physician. I completed medical school training and residency at Texas Tech Health Sciences Center in Lubbock, TX. I have wanted to be a psychiatrist for as long as I can remember.

I foster a warm, collaborative environment where patients and families feel supported and understood. I emphasize open communication and work closely with patients to define meaningful, realistic treatment goals. My holistic, family-centered approach integrates medication management, therapy, and psychoeducation with a deep commitment to cultural sensitivity and compassionate care. I begin by learning each patient's personal story, clinical history, and goals through a comprehensive evaluation, then create individualized, evidence-based treatment plans tailored to each child's unique needs and family context. I continuously collaborate with patients, families, and care teams to ensure treatment remains effective, combining psychotherapy, medication management, and coordination with other providers and resources.

I am board-certified in both Child & Adolescent Psychiatry and General Psychiatry, with over 20 years of clinical experience. I earned my M.D. from Loyola University Medical Center, where I also completed my residency in Adult Psychiatry, and pursued fellowship training in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at Northwestern University's Children's Memorial Hospital.

I typically incorporate elements of various psychotherapy modalities, including supportive, cognitive behavioral (CBT), dialectical behavioral (DBT), and insight-oriented therapy, in 30- or 45-minute follow-up visits. Occasionally, I may believe that more intensive therapy is needed and recommend that you bring a dedicated therapist into your care team for an optimal outcome. I aim to provide mental health care that helps patients live more fulfilling lives.

I treat a range of conditions, including anxiety, depression, and ADHD, in both children and adults. An initial assessment with me includes a thorough review of personal and medical history, identification of concerns, and the development of treatment goals. I often integrate supportive therapy with medication management to provide individualized, effective care that promotes both symptom relief and long-term well-being.

With my background in consultation-liaison psychiatry, I bring expertise in caring for individuals managing psychiatric conditions alongside significant medical illness.

The first appointment is a comprehensive evaluation, during which I carefully explore a patient's history, conditions, and symptoms. Based on this, I develop a personalized treatment plan and review it collaboratively, so expectations are clear.

New patients should expect a thorough review of their history and symptoms as they are establishing care with me.

Additionally, I am interested in global health and disparities in access to care and have traveled to Ghana to teach medical students rotating through psychiatry at the university there.

My approach is to get to know my patients well in order to provide more comprehensive care. I prefer Cognitive Behavioral therapy or Rational Emotive therapy, which I feel is the most time effective and enduring therapy to help patients' needs. I enjoy working with patients who have anxiety, mood disorders, and ADHD, and I am particularly interested in treatment-resistant Depression and Anxiety Disorders. Patients working with me know that I realize they have been suffering with their symptoms for some time, or they would not be seeking help, and I will work with each patient in collaboration to help receive the proper care. The typical process is to first spend time gathering a history of the symptoms, then include significant medical history which may be primary or secondary contributing factors, and also examine the psychosocial profile and how that may contribute to the initiation of symptoms and prevention of improvement. It is essential to form a differential diagnosis and continue to look at any ongoing issues as well as co-morbidities. I believe it is most important to discuss possible treatment modalities and take into consideration the patient's participation in ongoing care, staying up to date on the latest modalities and using a combination of medication, nutritional supplements, and behavioral therapies that can foster lasting improvement. It is very gratifying watching patients blossom and overcome their psychiatric disorder and then function at their best in work, leisure pursuits, and relationships.

I specialize in treating depression and anxiety. I acknowledge that while medications can be necessary, they are not magic, and a holistic approach is essential for achieving mental health. With this understanding, I spend time getting to know my patients, focusing on helping them achieve mental wellness rather than simply prescribing medications. When I became a doctor, I made a pledge to "do no harm." I take this commitment seriously and only prescribe medications, especially those with addictive properties, when it is safe and clearly indicated.

The first one or two appointments focus on a thorough assessment to establish a provisional diagnosis, which is essential for effective treatment planning.
