Biography
I have an interest in not only treating disorders but also helping patients improve their overall well-being. I treat a variety of conditions including depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and trauma-related disorders, through the use of medication and therapy. I have particular experience and interest in treating LGBTQ+ patients as well as young professionals and young adults.
I am a board-certified adult psychiatrist. I obtained my medical degree from the University of South Florida and subsequently completed my residency training at the University of Texas at Austin and Northwell Health's Zucker Hillside Hospital, where I also served as chief resident of the outpatient psychiatric department. Following my training, I worked at New York Presbyterian's Gracie Square Hospital as an inpatient psychiatrist, treating a variety of mental health conditions through a combination of medication management and therapeutic techniques in helping those experiencing distress due to their conditions.
Throughout my training and career, I have received several awards for my clinical care and contribution to medical and psychiatric education, including Zucker Hillside's Psychiatric Educator award. I have also contributed to medical research in the domains of psychiatry as well as LGBTQ+ healthcare.
