Find the right psychiatrist for your needs

I emphasize a patient-centered approach and believe that best treatment outcomes result from a strong therapeutic relationship between a patient and a psychiatrist.

My practice focuses on medication management. My goals include helping people feel comfortable seeking treatment as well as promoting an understanding of the purpose and reasoning behind the use of various medications to treat psychiatric disorders.

When I believe that additional therapy is also needed, I will ask that you bring a therapist into your care team to provide the best outcome.

I strive to build strong therapeutic relationships with the people I see in my practice. I have interests in pharmacogenomics as well as treatment resistant approaches to depression.
