I practice integrative psychiatry that is holistic in nature. My specializations include but are not limited to ADD/ADHD, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorders, Depression, Schizophrenia, Schizoaffective Disorder, Substance Use Disorders, PTSD/Trauma. I welcome clients from all walks of life. My practice accepts adults ages 18 and older, as well as adolescents ages 16-17.

I strive to create a warm, welcoming, non-judgmental environment that is accepting of who you are and based on mutual trust.
