I take a straightforward, collaborative approach to care. My goal is to help patients feel better in ways that are practical and sustainable. I emphasize clear communication, realistic expectations, and a judgment-free space where patients can speak openly and work toward meaningful, long-term improvement.

I begin with a focused, comprehensive evaluation to understand each patient's symptoms, background, and goals. I then develop a personalized treatment plan that may include medication, brief therapy, and actionable daily strategies. Follow-ups are efficient and goal-oriented, with adjustments made to support continued progress.

I am a psychiatrist with experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings, treating depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and psychotic disorders. I earned my medical degree from the American University of Antigua College of Medicine and completed my psychiatry residency at Penn State Health.

My approach is rooted in compassion, collaboration, and respect for your unique story. I view mental health treatment as a partnership, one where psychotherapy and medication can work together to support your growth and healing. My goal is to help you uncover the patterns and behaviors that may be holding you back, and empower you to make meaningful, sustainable change. I encourage patients to take ownership of their mental health, and I am here to provide the tools, guidance, and support you need along the way.

We'll begin by taking the time to understand your story, your goals, and what brings you to treatment. The first few sessions focus on building trust and identifying the areas where you'd like to see change. From there, we'll collaboratively develop a treatment plan that may include psychotherapy, medication, or both, always tailored to your needs. I draw from multiple therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, to provide care that fits you, not the other way around. Throughout our work, I'll support you in developing insight, resilience, and confidence in managing your mental health.

Outside of clinical care, I am deeply interested in narrative medicine, the way our personal stories shape our mental health, and I found my passion for mental health care through the power of listening to people's stories. I bring that same commitment and curiosity to my work with patients.

I integrate psychotherapy with medication management, drawing on my background in psychodynamic psychopharmacology and acceptance and commitment therapy.

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. Once this initial diagnosis is made, I collaborate with my patients to develop tailored treatment recommendations. During follow-up appointments, I actively listen to my patients and propose adjustments to the treatment plan as needed.

I treat adult patients with mood disorders including major depressive disorder and bipolar disorder, anxiety spectrum disorders, OCD, PTSD, and specific phobias.
