Biography
My practice is centered on evidence-based medication management, expertly tailored to each unique individual, informed by the best available research, and using a multidisciplinary approach where appropriate to achieve the best possible outcome. I offer motivational interviewing and supportive psychotherapy, and can collaborate with a therapist on your care team when more specialized treatment is needed on your journey to wellness.
Before joining Talkiatry, I had the honor of working for the Department of Veterans Affairs in both outpatient and residential settings, where I gained experience in improving quality of life for veterans with a wide range of troublesome to downright disabling psychiatric conditions, including severe anxiety and mood disorders, psychosis, obsessive-compulsive disorder, developmental disorders including autism spectrum and attention-deficit disorders, and post-traumatic stress disorder. These disorders have almost certainly been with us for all of recorded human history, but within the last few generations, our understanding of and ability to treat these conditions has grown by leaps and bounds.
I am a board certified general psychiatrist who trained at the University of South Florida, earning my Bachelor of Science in Biology, and completing medical school and residency at the Morsani College of Medicine in Tampa, Florida. During my time in training and at the VA, my passion for teaching, both medical trainees and patients, found a productive outlet. I look forward to bringing that experience forward to serve the broader population in these unprecedented times.
