Through this approach, I empower individuals to actively participate in their care and take meaningful steps toward recovery.

I earned my medical degree from the University of South Carolina School of Medicine Greenville and completed general psychiatry residency and an addiction psychiatry fellowship at the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston. I also hold undergraduate and master's degrees in biomedical engineering. I have experience in telepsychiatry, inpatient, outpatient, and interventional psychiatry settings, with expertise in treating mood, anxiety, trauma-related, attention, and substance use disorders, as well as women's behavioral health and veteran populations.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist specializing in general adult psychiatry. I create a non-judgmental, patient-centered environment that fosters open communication and collaboration, and I emphasize individualized care that integrates medicine, lifestyle interventions, and psychotherapy. My treatment plans are grounded in the understanding that mental health is influenced by biological, psychological, social, and lifestyle factors. I begin with a thorough assessment to understand each patient's history, concerns, and goals, then work collaboratively to create a personalized treatment plan, ensuring clarity, respect, and patient involvement throughout the process.

I completed my General Psychiatry Residency at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Tyler, where I served as Chief Resident in my final year of training. I earned my MD from the American University of the Caribbean, a Master of Science in Clinical Psychology from the University of Texas at Tyler, and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Southern Methodist University. With over 20 years of experience in the mental health field, I bring a uniquely comprehensive and well-rounded approach to psychiatric care. Having served in multiple roles, including case manager, psychotherapist, and program/clinical director, I have a deep understanding of patient care across various settings and perspectives.

My approach to care is patient-centered, holistic, empathic, evidence-based, and culturally competent. I value building trust and fostering an environment where patients feel heard, supported, and empowered in their care. I hold a special interest in college-age populations, women's and reproductive health, trauma-related care, nutritional psychiatry, and psychodynamic psychotherapy and psychopharmacology.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist with experience caring for patients across all age groups in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I earned my medical degree from Northeast Ohio Medical University and completed my psychiatry residency at OhioHealth Riverside Methodist Hospital.

In the initial session, I take time to understand each patient's history, concerns, and goals. I carefully rule out underlying physical conditions that may impact mental health and cognitive functioning, and collaborate with patients to identify lifestyle changes that can support their well-being. Treatment plans are tailored, evidence-based, and designed to be practical and achievable.

I bring a casual, easygoing communication style to create a comfortable space where patients feel at ease. I emphasize forming strong therapeutic bonds based on trust, and I combine supportive therapy with medication management. I encourage collaboration with therapists and use evidence-based treatment approaches tailored to each individual's needs. I begin with a thorough understanding of each patient's concerns, history, and goals, then create a personalized treatment plan and work collaboratively with the patient to reach those goals, adjusting care as needed for ongoing progress.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist with experience in both outpatient and inpatient psychiatry, as well as addiction medicine. I completed my medical degree at Morehouse School of Medicine and trained at University Hospitals Case Medical Center, where I completed general psychiatry residency and fellowships in addiction and community psychiatry. My experience includes roles in community mental health, academic teaching, and the VA system.

Outside of work, I enjoy music production, soccer, spending time with loved ones, and all dogs.
