Biography
I take a holistic approach to mental health care, integrating therapy into my sessions and collaborating with patients to develop individualized medication regimens that best meet their needs. My gentle and understanding approach helps create a supportive environment for my patients, fostering their mental and emotional well-being. While I have extensive expertise in treating college-aged young adults, my practice also includes a broad range of patients, with a particular specialization in Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). I am trained in Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy, a highly effective treatment for OCD.
I am a board certified adult psychiatrist. I earned my undergraduate degree and Masters in Teaching from Boston University, followed by my medical degree from the University of Massachusetts Medical School. I completed my residency in general adult psychiatry at Cambridge Health Alliance, a Harvard teaching hospital. I currently serve as a staff psychiatrist at Harvard University Health Services, where I work with both undergraduate and graduate students. I have developed significant expertise in working with LGBTQ individuals through my involvement with the Gender and Sexuality Clinic at Cambridge Health Alliance and the LGBTQ Interdisciplinary Team at Harvard University Health Services.
