Great to meet you!

As a board certified psychiatrist, psychotherapist, and pharmacologist I believe in a balanced approach to obtaining and maintaining mental wellness. Congratulations on prioritizing self-care by seeking mental healthcare. I have been in practice for 3.5 years and appreciate seeing adult patients struggling with common and uncommon mental illness.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Everyone has a story and I hope to partner with you to unpack yours. It is important to me that you feel empowered and supported to thrive in all phases of life while providing a safe space to find your voice.

What you can expect from our first session

I always start with an introductory session, where you’ll have the opportunity to share your story and what you hope to achieve in therapy. From there, we’ll work together in the sessions that follow to make these goals a reality for you.
