Welcome! I am a board-certified psychiatrist specializing in adult psychiatry and psychopharmacology. I earned my medical degree from A.T. Still University, Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine, and completed my general psychiatry residency at Wright State University. My background includes a decade of clinical care in both military and civilian settings, treating a wide range of mental health conditions.
I believe that optimal mental health requires a collaborative, holistic, and integrative approach. Think of it as bringing the pieces of the puzzle together—my role is to provide safe, rational medication management, while looking at the bigger picture of your health to understand the root problems and help you move forward. While I specialize in psychopharmacology for mood, anxiety, trauma, and substance use disorders, I also value the integration of psychotherapeutic principles to ensure we are addressing your well-being from every angle.
My style is practical, grounded, and solution-focused. In our introductory session, we will focus on understanding your specific challenges, needs and treatment goals. As we work together through the diagnostic process, we will clarify your specific targets for care and collaborate on a clear, evidence-based treatment plan with clear, rational steps to help you achieve progress.
