Great to meet you!

My approach to psychiatry is rooted in genuine connection. I believe that feeling truly heard is the foundation of any meaningful progress, and I bring that commitment to every appointment. I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, and addiction, and I know these experiences rarely arrive on their own. They intersect with life, with identity, with the weight of daily pressures. Together, we take the time to understand not just the symptoms, but the full picture of who you are. My goal is for you to leave each session with a clearer sense of direction and a stronger sense of what is possible for you.

My approach to therapy

I take a collaborative, person-centered approach, which means your input shapes the direction of your care. I combine medication management with supportive conversation, and I prioritize keeping things practical and grounded in your real life. You are an expert on your own experience, and I am here to work alongside you.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is a conversation, not an evaluation. I will ask questions to understand what has brought you here and what matters most to you. There is no pressure to have everything figured out. By the end, we will have a shared sense of where to begin, and you will know what to expect as we move forward together.
