Biography
I foster a comfortable environment for patients at any stage of treatment. As a passionate educator, I enjoy providing psychoeducation and supportive therapy to help patients understand themselves, their relationships, and their motivations. I tailor treatment to each individual's goals, preferences, and strengths, and I use my expertise in diagnosis and pharmacology to optimize care, monitor treatment success, and maintain progress, with the ultimate goal of helping patients feel and function at their best.
I am a Board-Certified psychiatrist. I graduated from the University of Georgia Honors Program with a B.S. in Chemistry and earned my M.D. from the Medical College of Georgia. During my psychiatry residency in Greenville, SC, I served as chief resident and gained extensive experience through moonlighting. I joined the faculty of Gateway's Savannah residency program in 2021, where I served as Assistant Program Director, and I continue to teach residents and students as an Assistant Professor at Mercer University and the Medical College of Georgia. In my community psychiatry practice, I specialized in Assertive Community Treatment, worked with First Episode Psychosis programs, a forensic Diversion-Reentry clinic, telehealth, and outpatient psychiatry, particularly serving graduate students, professionals, and their families in the Savannah area.
