With over 30 years of experience in psychiatry, I bring a deep foundation of clinical knowledge to every patient I work with. I specialize in anxiety, depression, and mood disorders, and I approach each person's care holistically. Rather than focusing on a single symptom or aspect of your life, I work to understand the full picture — your history, your environment, your daily functioning — so we can develop a treatment plan that truly fits you.
My approach is analytical and comprehensive. I believe that to treat someone effectively, you have to understand them fully — not just their diagnosis, but how their mental health affects every part of their life. Mental health underlies general health in profound ways, and I'm committed to helping patients achieve real quality of life, not just symptom management. In session, patients often describe feeling genuinely understood and supported as we work through challenges together.
In our first session, I'll take time to get to know you — your background, your current struggles, and what you're hoping to achieve through care. Many of the patients I work with come in feeling overwhelmed, unable to focus, or no longer able to do the things they used to enjoy. Some are carrying deep sadness they haven't been able to shake. My goal in that first meeting is to help you feel heard, and to begin building a clear, collaborative picture of what's going on so we can move forward with intention.
