Great to meet you!

I have almost 40 years of experiences treating patients with psychiatric disorders. I not only have expertise in the most commonly encountered difficulties such as depression and anxiety, but I also provide services with patients with complex and treatment resistant disorders. and patients who have complicated or multiple health care concerns in addition to their mental, emotional or behavioral difficulties. I spent the first 36 years of my career as a professor at a University School of Medicine where I taught trainees the details of anatomical, physiological and neurochemical basis of behavior. This provided me with a high degree of expertise in understanding the biological factors involved in the cause and treatment of psychiatric disorders.

My approach to therapy

Emotional and mental disorders create undue and often, overwhelming suffering. The pain is real. It impacts the ability to have deep personal relationships, interferes with success in your job and career, and erodes at the core of your sense of self-worth and value. Together we will work to mold a plan to specifically address the issues that are preventing you from experiencing the life you want. With almost forty years of experience, I am confident that we can be successful.

What you can expect from me

Patient will feel accepted and understood. They will understand that I approach treatment as something to which we both make a commitment. I will be very detailed in explaining what I think is creating the presenting difficulties and developing a comprehensive plan of treatment tailored to meet the circumstances of each individual. I will present various treatment options explaining the pros and cons of each, but ultimately, I allow patients to decide the approach that they think fits best for them.
