Great to meet you!

Hello and welcome to comprehensive psychiatric services at DMD Health and Wellness!

As a General (Adult) and Child/Adolescent Psychiatrist, I am passionate about empowering all ages on their journey towards mental health and well-being.

I completed a residency in General Psychiatry and fellowship in Child & Adolescent Psychiatry at Georgia's prestigious medical college, one of the oldest medical schools in the nation. This expert, specialized training has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to understand the unique psychological needs of children, adolescents, and adults.

I am a Board Certified Psychiatrist, Board Certified Child/Adolescent Psychiatrist, and am also a Board Certified Pediatrician (triple-trained in General Pediatrics, General Psychiatry, and Child/Adolescent Psychiatry). I completed a pediatrics residency at NYC’s only academic Children’s Hospital in Brooklyn, SUNY Downstate, with additional pediatric and psychiatric internships at Brooklyn’s Maimonides Medical Center.

I graduated with my medical degree (Doctorate) with clinical accolades from New York’s oldest osteopathic medical school, NYIT.

My approach to therapy

Over the years, as a Psychiatrist, I have gained extensive experience diagnosing and treating a wide range of psychiatric conditions. I additionally believe in a holistic approach to mental health, integrating psychotherapy, psychopharmacology, and therapeutic interventions tailored to each patient's needs.

I strongly believe in the power of empathy and understanding in treatment. I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space for my patients, where they feel heard, understood, and accepted.

What you can expect from me

I work collaboratively with my patients and their families, empowering them with the knowledge and skills to manage their mental health.

I understand that seeking psychiatric help can be a daunting process, and I am here to support you every step of the way. Together, we will work towards achieving mental health and well-being.

Thank you for considering me as your Physician and Psychiatrist. I look forward to joining you and your family on your journey towards healing and growth!
