Great to meet you!

When I started working in psychiatry it became my passion. I work with individuals from the age of 6 to geriatrics. I have had the pleasure to work on several inpatient crisis stability units for adult age patients 18-55 years old as well as geriatric units for patients ages 55 years and older. I have also worked in a private practice setting for the past 4 years. I have come to realize when you love what you do it no longer truly is work.

My approach to therapy

I used evidence-based practice medication management for my treatment process.

I DO NOT PRESCRIBE PSYCHOSTIMULANTS OR BENZODIAZEPINES.


Anxiety (no benzodiazepines)

Depression

Irritability

Anger

Sleep disturbances (no benzodiazepines)

PTSD

Schizophrenia

Bipolar disorders

Adjustment disorders

Personality disorders

And various other psychiatric and behavioral health conditions.

What you can expect from me

I want to ensure to my patients that they have been actively heard and fully listened to. I want my patients to know that I am a provider that cares greatly and strives fully to make a positive impact on their lives for new beginnings and positive changes. With telehealth, we try to make it easily accessible so every individual can make scheduled appointments, even without leaving their homes. We understand that each individual’s condition is unique.
