Using evidence-based treatments, I explain the reasoning behind each approach so patients feel informed and empowered throughout their care. I bring expertise in ADHD, depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, bipolar depression, OCD, and a wide range of psychiatric conditions.

In the first session, I take time to understand each patient's history, concerns, and goals. Together, we identify key areas of focus and build an individualized treatment plan. Follow-up sessions build on progress, address challenges, and adjust the plan as needs evolve. I work at the patient's pace, helping them explore patterns, gain insight, and develop a sustainable path forward.

I attended the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, where I majored in Economics, before earning my medical degree from Lincoln Memorial University. I completed my psychiatry residency at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center in Memphis. I have experience in both inpatient and outpatient care.

I take a collaborative, supportive, and evidence-based approach to treatment. I value confidentiality, culturally sensitive care, and trauma-informed practice. Known for my warm yet direct communication style, I work to create a respectful, nonjudgmental environment where patients feel heard, understood, and actively involved in their care. My clinical focus includes ADHD, PTSD, and personality disorders, and I bring an integrative lens to psychiatric care.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist, DO, DABPN (he/his), with experience across inpatient and outpatient settings. I have held leadership roles including Interim Medical Director and Director at Richard Young Hospital, where I also created and led the hospital's ECT program.

Care begins with a comprehensive intake that explores medical, psychiatric, social, and functional aspects of a patient's life. Session length and frequency are tailored to individual needs. Treatment plans are developed collaboratively and may include medication management combined with talk therapy and other evidence-based interventions. Progress is reviewed regularly and adjusted based on ongoing dialogue.

I have a conversational style that fosters trust and openness. I encourage patients to ask any and all questions and take pride in helping people understand their symptoms. Patients can expect a provider who genuinely enjoys listening to their stories. I begin by thoroughly reviewing each patient's history, concerns, and goals during the initial session. From there, I develop individualized treatment plans tailored to align with each patient's objectives, emphasizing collaborative care and clear communication.

I completed medical school in Des Moines, Iowa, with third-year rotations in Chicago. I finished internship and residency at VCU School of Medicine in Richmond, VA, and am currently completing a forensic psychiatry fellowship in Dallas, Texas.

I value collaboration and encourage patients to ask questions, clarify expectations, and identify their primary concerns from the start. While medication management is part of care, I emphasize insight, goal setting, and skill building. I integrate hypnotherapy, guided imagery, relaxation, and meditation to support wellness, pain management, sleep, anxiety, and addiction, tailoring treatment to each patient's needs. I take a flexible, whole-person approach, combining medication management with evidence-based therapies such as CBT, CPT, motivational interviewing, and family-based interventions. I work comfortably with children, adults, families, service members, Veterans, and individuals facing life transitions, including end-of-life concerns. My goal is to help patients develop practical tools for lasting mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

I am a physician with a distinguished career in military and civilian psychiatry. A retired Colonel in the U.S. Army, I have served as a plenary and invited speaker at national and international conferences on topics including addiction, electroconvulsive therapy, hypnotherapy, and quality improvement. I am a Certified Healthcare Executive, hold a master's degree in preventive medicine and biometrics, and have published in peer-reviewed journals. My clinical background includes pain management, addiction psychiatry, child and adult psychiatry, and academic appointments at multiple universities.

I practice with empathy, compassion, and active listening, maintaining a non-judgmental approach to create a safe and respectful environment. I value open communication and work closely with patients to establish clear, shared treatment goals. I begin by gaining a thorough understanding of each patient's history, concerns, and goals, and I take a holistic approach, considering biological, psychological, social, and environmental factors. Treatment plans are individualized and may include medication, psychotherapy, and lifestyle changes, with a collaborative team-based approach when appropriate.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist with experience in both outpatient and inpatient settings. I earned a Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Engineering from The University of Texas at Austin and my medical degree from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas. I completed my psychiatry residency at Baylor College of Medicine Menninger Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences in Houston, TX. I previously served as a Staff Psychiatrist at the Michael E. DeBakey Veterans Affairs Medical Center for over seven years, where I evaluated and treated veterans with a wide range of psychiatric conditions including depression, anxiety and panic disorders, PTSD, bipolar-related disorders, ADHD, and substance use disorders.
