I've had the privilege of working with diverse populations across multiple care settings—from residential treatment facilities and inpatient psychiatric hospitals to outpatient clinics and correctional healthcare systems. This breadth of experience has given me a deep understanding of mental health challenges across the lifespan and in various life circumstances.

I specialize in treating adults and adolescents dealing with serious mental illness, including mood disorders, depressive disorders, anxiety, psychotic disorders, ADHD, personality disorders, eating disorders, substance use disorders, and geriatric mental health concerns. I'm particularly passionate about serving individuals who have been underserved or face complex mental health challenges.
