Biography
I am a Staff Psychiatrist at Talkiatry and have been in practice for over 6 years, both in the U.S. and abroad. I am double board-certified in child and adolescent psychiatry and adult psychiatry. My practice focuses on medication management, and I strive to provide exceptional medical care with extensive experience in treating persons with diverse behavioral disorders and backgrounds.
I involve my patients in all decisions about their health and provide care that is respectful of patient preferences, needs, and values. I typically recommend evidence-based treatments and may, occasionally, believe that concurrent therapy is also needed. In those cases, I would ask that you bring a therapist into your care team to provide the best outcome.
I received my medical degree from Universidad Evangélica de El Salvador. I completed a residency in Psychiatry and a fellowship in child and adolescent psychiatry at the Southern University School of Medicine in Springfield, Illinois. After completing my training, I remained at the school, where I worked as an Assistant Professor of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, supervising and teaching medical students, residents, and fellows, and treating patients with various psychiatric conditions. I also have experience in treating treatment-resistant mood disorders with electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).
