I am a double board-certified psychiatrist in adult and child/adolescent psychiatry, providing expert care to patients ages 6 to 80 through secure virtual appointments. Licensed in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, and Delaware, I bring 25 years of clinical experience to psychiatric evaluations and medication management. My work experiences include private practice, academic medicine, community psychiatry, residential treatment facilities, intensive outpatients.
I earned an MD from Albert-Ludwigs University in Freiburg, Germany, and completed psychiatry residency and child psychiatry fellowship training at Drexel University in Philadelphia, PA.

Initially I will provide a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation which means gathering information about you, your past treatment including medications. We will then come up with a treatment plan with prescription medications. My main goal for every patient is to feel their best with as little medications as necessary.
During our initial session, we'll take the time to discuss the specific challenges and symptoms you are experiencing. We'll develop an accurate diagnosis and create a personalized treatment plan, which may include prescription options, to help you start feeling better as soon as possible.
Follow-up appointments are typically scheduled about 1 month after your initial visit. Once your condition is stable and no further medication adjustments are needed, we'll transition to follow-up visits every 3 months.
I remain accessible between appointments and respond to messages within 12 to 24 hours to ensure timely support appropriate care when needed.
