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.

Prior to joining Talkiatry, I was working as an attending psychiatrist and teaching faculty in an academic hospital.

I have experience managing diverse patients ranging from chronic severe mental illness and dual diagnosis patients to crisis management and high-functioning outpatient populations. I have years of experience treating patients from different cultural and religious backgrounds. Prior to moving to the USA, I worked as a medical officer in a government hospital system.

I am board-certified in adult psychiatry. My approach is client-centered, individualized, and collaborative. I focus on building a strong therapeutic alliance with each client to work towards achieving enhanced functioning and meaning in their lives. I work with individuals experiencing a wide range of mental health concerns, including depression and other mood concerns, bipolar spectrum illnesses, OCD, PTSD, anxiety disorders, and substance use disorders. Though I specialize in medication management, I believe in an integrative and comprehensive treatment program that incorporates multiple aspects of an individual's health and wellness. Along with discussing physical health concerns, diet, exercise, personal connection, and stress management, I incorporate various therapeutic modalities, including CBT, DBT, ACT, and mindfulness, into my work. In some instances, I may recommend more intensive psychotherapy with a collaborating therapist in order to help facilitate the best care possible.

I received my medical degree from Rush Medical College and also hold a graduate degree in epidemiology from the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. Following medical school, I completed my residency in psychiatry at Emory University School of Medicine. During my final year of residency, I served as chief resident at Grady Memorial Hospital. Prior to joining Talkiatry, I was an assistant professor at Emory University Department of Psychiatry, where I worked as an attending psychiatrist at Grady Behavioral Health. While at Grady, I worked primarily as a community psychiatrist with a focus on working with individuals experiencing psychosis, and I also frequently worked on the inpatient psychiatry service. As an Emory faculty member, teaching and mentorship were an especially meaningful part of my work.

I believe in the importance of establishing an individualized treatment approach to meet each individual's need while providing comprehensive care to my patients. My clinical focus has been in treating children, adolescents, and young adults with depression, anxiety, posttraumatic stress disorder, and ADHD. I provide medication management services in combination with supportive therapy during 30-minute follow-up visits.

My philosophy includes a healing-oriented approach that considers the whole person, including all lifestyle aspects. I aim to provide collaborative and comprehensive care, which may include medication management, lifestyle interventions, stress reduction techniques, and other integrative approaches. I employ pharmacotherapy along with supportive therapy and integrative approaches, and I believe that building a strong therapeutic relationship where the patient feels empowered is the key to healing.

I am double Board Certified in Psychiatry and Lifestyle Medicine. I completed my psychiatry residency training at the University of Maryland/Sheppard Pratt, where I served as the chief resident.

I am fluent in Portuguese, English, and Spanish.

My practice focuses on medication management and supportive psychotherapy in typically 30-minute follow-up visits. At times, additional psychotherapy is needed, and a therapist may be added to provide the best outcome. I have developed expertise in quickly building rapport with patients, conducting medication management assessments, and implementing effective interventions. I understand the delicate balance of providing thorough care within the constraints of virtual sessions, and I have developed strategies to ensure patients feel supported and understood, even through a screen.

These experiences taught me how to maintain clinical excellence while showing patience and respect for each patient's unique circumstances.

I am an integrative psychiatrist with a warm, structured, and research-driven approach that combines medication when needed with integrative tools such as CBT, lifestyle changes, a "24-hour approach", and a bio-psycho-social-spiritual lens. I treat depression, bipolar, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, substance use, and psychotic-spectrum disorders with a holistic, results-driven approach. I work with individuals who feel stuck — functioning on the outside but "not like myself" inside — and focus on root causes to help them gain clarity, momentum, and purpose to function at their highest level across home, career, and life.

I begin with a 360-degree assessment exploring emotional patterns, routine, physical health, neurobiology, and values. My 24-hour optimization model supports intentional living, clarity, and structure. I fine-tune medications and augment with integrative tools to enhance mood, resilience, and wellbeing.

I hold an MPH and completed a 1-year fellowship through Psychiatry Redefined, as well as intensive inpatient and outpatient training.

I also serve as Assistant Dean of Students for the U.S. clinical program at St. George's University.

I strive to create a supportive and respectful environment where patients feel genuinely heard and understood. I value careful listening, curiosity, and follow-through, and take a practical, individualized approach to care. Rather than relying on one-size-fits-all solutions, I collaborate with patients to clarify goals, track progress, and focus on changes that meaningfully improve daily life. I begin by developing a thorough understanding of each patient's history, current concerns, strengths, and goals. Early visits focus on understanding context: what is happening now, what has been tried, and what the patient hopes to change. Treatment plans are developed collaboratively and adjusted over time, with follow-up visits emphasizing steady, sustainable improvement through integrated and comprehensive care.

Medication is just one option; I also consider therapy, lifestyle changes, and other supports. Collaboration and trust are central to my approach, with patients guiding the care decisions.

During the first appointment, I conduct an in-depth, unhurried conversation to explore the patient's history and goals. Together, we develop a personalized treatment plan that may include medication, therapy referrals, and practical strategies. Ongoing follow-ups provide space to track progress, make adjustments, and ensure the patient feels comfortable and empowered. I diagnose and treat a wide variety of conditions, including depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, trauma-related disorders, phobias, personality disorders, ADHD, bipolar disorder, postpartum depression, and concerns across all age groups.

When appropriate, I may also recommend referrals to specialized psychotherapists to address your individual needs as part of a holistic treatment approach.

A story I came across years back still inspires me each day. A man was taking a morning walk at the beach. He saw that along with the morning tide came hundreds of starfish. When the tide receded, the starfish were left behind and would die in the morning sun. While the tide was fresh and the starfish were alive, the man took a few steps, picked one up, and threw it into the water, and continued throwing starfish back into the ocean. Behind him was a stranger who couldn't understand what this man was doing. He caught up with him and asked, "What are you doing? There are hundreds of starfish. How many can you help? What difference does it make?" The man did not reply; rather, he took two more steps, picked up another one, threw it into the water, and said, "It makes a difference to this one." With this story as my motivation and ultimate objective, it has always been my goal, with each patient, to provide superior services.

Raised in South Carolina, and now a resident of Florida, my wife of 31 years and I have six children. I enjoy outdoor activities and team sports and am an avid fan of Tolkien and C.S. Lewis. I at times incorporate analogies from their works into therapy if appropriate.

I value creating a safe and nonjudgmental space where patients can speak openly about their experiences and goals. I believe in a collaborative approach, working with patients to discover strategies that best suit their lives. I also take into account lifestyle factors that may influence mental health, supporting a well-rounded and sustainable path to wellness.

I begin care with a comprehensive conversation about current concerns, past mental health, physical health, and life experiences. From there, I work with patients to create a personalized treatment plan, whether through therapy, medication, lifestyle adjustments, or a combination. Follow-ups focus on refining the plan to ensure it continues to support the patient's journey.

I earned my medical degree with honors and completed my residency in Adult Psychiatry at the University of Kentucky College of Medicine. I have worked across a wide range of clinical settings, including inpatient, outpatient, community clinics, and state hospitals. I am also trained in multiple psychotherapy modalities, equipping me to meet diverse patient needs.
