In my practice, I employ supportive psychotherapy and mindfulness along with evidence-based medication management, utilizing the most current clinical guidelines and treatment modalities.

The first appointment is a comprehensive evaluation, during which I carefully explore a patient's history, conditions, and symptoms.
