I value open communication and a strong therapeutic alliance, creating a supportive and collaborative environment where patients feel heard and respected. I treat a range of conditions including ADHD, depression, anxiety, OCD, bipolar disorder, and PTSD/trauma. I develop individualized treatment plans that typically include both medication management and therapy, guided by evidence-based practices. I also promote weight-neutral care and emphasize health-supporting habits.

I begin with a comprehensive initial appointment focused on understanding each patient's history and treatment goals, and I use this information to build personalized treatment plans. Follow-up appointments include ongoing medication management and the integration of therapeutic techniques, ensuring care evolves with the patient's needs.

I foster an inclusive, nonjudgmental environment where patients feel safe to be themselves.

In early sessions, I work collaboratively to understand patients' lives, goals, and challenges. While my focus is medication management, I integrate cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and supportive techniques. I may recommend additional therapy as needed and particularly value working with youth and adults from diverse backgrounds.
