After my fellowship, I worked at Woodhull Hospital as an attending before becoming unit chief and running their Special Pathogens Unit during the COVID-19 pandemic.

I am a staff psychiatrist at Talkiatry, board-certified in adult psychiatry. My practice is focused primarily on medication management, which I combine with a therapeutic style that blends supportive therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and motivational interviewing. Follow-up appointments with me typically last 20–30 minutes. While I am trained in a variety of therapeutic techniques, I work collaboratively with therapists and may recommend their inclusion as part of your treatment team, depending on your individualized treatment plan.

I attended the University of Connecticut School of Medicine, where I received my medical degree, and completed my psychiatry residency at Stony Brook University Hospital in New York. I have received several awards for teaching and the treatment of chronically ill patients, including Stony Brook University's "William Turner Award" for excellence in education and leadership. Post residency, I worked with general adult patients as well as older adults at Manchester Memorial Hospital, where I served as both an outpatient psychiatrist and Director of the Geriatric Intensive Outpatient Program.

Although I do not treat child or adolescent patients, I have experience working with people of all ages, from young adults to adults. I have experience treating mood disorders, anxiety disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, patients in the perinatal period, and patients with co-occurring substance use disorders. I have regularly managed behavioral problems in adults with autism spectrum disorders as well as dementia. I particularly enjoy working with patients dealing with life or role transitions, older adults, and patients with bipolar or other affective disorders.

I provide patient-centered care with an emphasis on medication management, psychoeducation, and lifestyle adjustments. I typically provide supportive or integrative therapy along with medication management, but some cases will require the addition of a therapist to the treatment team. As an outpatient psychiatrist, I have an extensive history of treating patients of all ages with a wide variety of psychiatric disorders, with an emphasis on mood and anxiety disorders.

I am a Staff Psychiatrist at Talkiatry, certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology in Adult Psychiatry, and have been practicing for three and a half years. I received a Bachelor's of Medical Science from the University of Western Ontario in Canada and my Medical Degree from Ross University. I completed my residency at Metropolitan Hospital in Manhattan, where I served as chief resident in my final year. I then worked as a psychiatrist in the outpatient department at Kings County Hospital, where I also supervised residents from SUNY Downstate. I treated patients remotely during the COVID-19 outbreak, helping to manage the increase in stress that came with the pandemic.

My practice focuses on medication management, which I typically offer in conjunction with supportive or insight-oriented therapy in 30-minute follow-up visits. My primary focus is treating adult outpatients with mood or psychotic disorders, though I have treated a wide range of adult patients throughout my career. On occasion, I will determine that additional therapy is also needed and ask that you bring a therapist into your care team to provide the best outcome.

I am board-certified in Adult Psychiatry and have been practicing for over 25 years. I completed my undergraduate studies at Tufts University, received my medical degree from Temple University School of Medicine in Philadelphia, PA, and continued with Temple for my residency in adult psychiatry. After completing training, I worked at Cooper Hospital in Camden, NJ as Associate Director of Consultation/Liaison Service and Psychiatry Residency Training and Co-Director of the Neuropsychiatry Clinic. I then began working exclusively in outpatient settings, joined NewPoint Behavioral Health Care, and served as Medical Director before and after their merge with Acenda Integrated Health. I currently hold the position of Staff Psychiatrist at Talkiatry.

My philosophy includes a healing-oriented approach that considers the whole person, including all lifestyle aspects. I aim to provide collaborative and comprehensive care, which may include medication management, lifestyle interventions, stress reduction techniques, and other integrative approaches. I employ pharmacotherapy along with supportive therapy and integrative approaches, and I believe that building a strong therapeutic relationship where the patient feels empowered is the key to healing.

I am double Board Certified in Psychiatry and Lifestyle Medicine. I completed my psychiatry residency training at the University of Maryland/Sheppard Pratt, where I served as the chief resident. I am currently working on completing my Ph.D. in Integrative Medicine. I have more than five years of experience treating patients with anxiety, depression, PTSD, Bipolar, OCD, ADHD, and other mental health issues, and I have practiced in various settings over my career, including working for the Department of Defense, private practice, and community mental health. I am fluent in Portuguese, English, and Spanish.

At the heart of my clinical approach is a strong emphasis on establishing trust, building a therapeutic relationship to help patients achieve their goals, and helping people better understand their brain, its strengths, and vulnerabilities and how to use assessment and training to maximize everyone's unique emotional and cognitive capacity. My practice focuses on medication management. Typically, I offer this in conjunction with supportive or emotionally focused therapy in 30-minute follow-up visits. Occasionally I may believe that additional therapy is also needed and ask that you bring a therapist into your care team to provide the best outcome. I believe that every patient is unique and every situation different. I seek to bring a wealth of experience to bear but, above all, to do so with a personalized and compassionate focus on what will help everyone specifically, practically, effectively, and efficiently. I am especially happy to help people new to emotional help understand the value of different approaches.

I am a board-certified adult psychiatrist with a strong background in neuroscience and psychopharmacology who has been in practice for over 25 years. I received my medical degree from Dartmouth Medical School and went on to complete my residency in psychiatry at MGH in Boston. After completing training, I have worked in every setting from a Community Mental Health Center in rural VT, a General Hospital Department of Psychiatry in Waterbury CT, and a private psychiatric hospital in Massachusetts. I have held academic clinical appointments at Dartmouth, Yale, and Harvard and provided supervision to medical students, residents, APRNs, Social Workers, and Mental Health Clinicians. In addition to my direct clinical work, I have extensive experience with value-based care having worked with the behavioral divisions of CIGNA Behavioral Health, Optum Behavioral Health, and MCG. I have also been involved in the latest approaches made possible in mental health by the growth of direct-to-consumer services as part of digital transformation.

At the heart of my clinical approach is a strong emphasis on establishing trust, rapport, and therapeutic alliance to help persons to feel and live well and to progress toward their goals, both in treatment and in life. I begin with consultation, a compassionate, collaborative process of discovery that culminates in a working diagnostic impression and, in turn, treatment recommendations. For those with whom I engage in a treatment relationship, I provide psychoeducation, medication management, and individual psychotherapy, this last modality predominantly drawing from both psychodynamic and behavioral psychological models to tailor treatment to each patient. On some occasions, I may believe that additional therapy is needed and ask that you bring a therapist into your care team to provide the best outcome.

I am a board-certified adult psychiatrist who has been in practice for over ten years. I received my medical degree from Stanford University and went on to complete my residency in psychiatry at Harvard University. After completing training, I cultivated a private practice of psychiatry in San Francisco, California, treating persons with a variety of psychiatric illnesses, while also providing consultation and clinical supervision to psychotherapists in day-treatment and office-based practices. I then served as a psychiatry professor at the Florida Atlantic University Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine in Florida, where, as Associate Director of the Psychiatry Residency Training Program, I provided psychiatric inpatient treatment while bringing leadership, scholarship, teaching, supervision, and mentoring to psychiatry residents and medical students. Most recently, I worked as a senior medical officer/consultant psychiatrist in New Zealand's public health system, serving local communities with expert diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of mental health conditions. I also continued to supervise U.S.-based psychiatrists, along with New Zealand psychotherapists, in advanced and complex clinical psychopharmacology and psychotherapy.
