Biography

I value open communication and strive to create a supportive, respectful environment where patients feel heard and understood. I believe in a collaborative partnership, working closely with patients to define and pursue their treatment goals. My approach emphasizes the importance of both psychotherapy and psychopharmacology, while addressing the whole person.

I am an adult outpatient psychiatrist with experience treating a wide range of mental health conditions. I earned my medical degree from the University of Massachusetts Medical School and completed my psychiatry residency at Pine Rest Christian Mental Health Services in affiliation with Michigan State University. I am board-certified in psychiatry and am committed to providing thoughtful, evidence-based care.

I begin by taking time to thoroughly understand each patient's history, concerns, and goals during the initial visit. From there, I work collaboratively with patients to develop an individualized treatment plan that aligns with their needs and supports long-term progress.

I value open communication and believe in creating a warm, supportive environment where patients feel respected and understood. With over fifteen years of experience helping individuals heal from trauma, I view the therapeutic process as an opportunity for patients to reclaim their voices and move from "victim" to survivor on their own terms. Patients can expect empathy, collaboration, and a strong sense of safety in my care. I begin each therapeutic relationship by establishing trust and safety, encouraging honest dialogue around personal and family challenges. I integrate education, reflection, and resource sharing on topics like communication and conflict resolution. Together with patients, I develop personalized short- and long-term goals rooted in their individual and cultural values, ensuring therapy supports meaningful and lasting growth.

I earned my Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice from the University of Massachusetts and a Master's Degree in Clinical Counseling from Walden University. My professional journey began in law enforcement, later leading to education and mental health advocacy. My work as a crisis advocate for survivors of sexual assault and domestic abuse inspired me to pursue counseling full time. Since earning my graduate degree in 2015, I have worked extensively with children, families, and adults, specializing in trauma recovery and empowerment.

I became a psychiatrist with one mission: to provide compassionate, high-quality mental health care accessible to anyone, anywhere. My approach emphasizes that patients are more than a diagnosis, focusing on the whole person, their story, struggles, and strengths. I partner with patients to create individualized therapeutic plans that may include medication management and holistic strategies. My goal is to promote mood stability, balance emotions, reduce anxiety, quiet overwhelming thoughts, resolve interpersonal conflicts, and strengthen resilience. I believe healing is best achieved through collaboration, open dialogue, and empowering patients to make informed choices about their care.

I am committed to meeting patients where they feel most comfortable, whether at home, work, or elsewhere. I offer the same compassion, attentiveness, and expertise as in-person care while removing barriers like travel, time constraints, and distance.

Originally from Pakistan, I pursued my undergraduate degree at Benedictine University in Illinois, medical school at Des Moines University in Iowa, and psychiatry residency at Trinity Health Livonia Hospital/Wayne State University in Michigan. I have experience in inpatient, outpatient, forensic, and community mental health settings.
