I'm a board-certified, integrative pediatric and adult psychiatrist. I work with people interested in targetting root causes of suffering as much as possible. We know that for many, the roots can be psychological and in brain connections/wiring. New therapies allow us to target both of these more than ever.: Neurofeedback, TMS, Genetic and EEG markers that can personalize lifestyle, supplement and medication treatment. When properly used in the right setting, ketamine is known to dramatically speed up psychotherapy progress.

As a child and adolescent psychiatrist with nearly two decades worth of experience, I have come to cherish the collaborative aspects of patient care above all else. Treatment and recovery become more meaningful and durable when defined by patients, families, and doctors together. (Or, as some. might say, multiple heads are better than one.) In working with diverse populations, it has also become evident to me that "medication-only" treatment models have their place, but are limited in what they can do and what they should be asked to do. This is especially true in the child and adolescent population.

During college, I developed an interest in psychology and neuroscience. After college, I became a middle school teacher, and found my passion in working with children and families. I believe in a holistic approach to mental health that encompasses physical health and psychological health. I work with patients and families in a collaborative manner, setting shared treatment goals, and believe that patients often hold the key to moving forward towards these goals.

My treatment philosophy is to get to know each person as a whole. I want to get to know you, your story, and what matters to you. If needed, I will help you tell your story. I approach the therapeutic relationship as a partnership built on trust and communication with you in the driver’s seat. The better you can help me understand your world, the better I can pull from the resources available to me to share with you. You will understand what is going on with you or your child and be active participants in this journey. I enjoy working with parents/caregivers and families and believe it is essential to a child’s treatment & recovery.

When caring for children and their families, I combine my knowledge of pediatrics and psychiatry to fully understand not only the child’s presenting issue, but their current stage of development, social situation and the overall family system. However, my extensive training has taught me that beyond any modality, a doctor’s dedication to their patient is what makes the greatest impact.

Whole healing is the foundation of my treatment approach. It combines the humanist, evidence-based medical training I've undergone with more intuitive, practical traditions. Whatever you may be struggling with, my goal is to develop a deep understanding of you as a whole person. I aim to nourish all areas that impact mental health including diet, exercise, lifestyle (like stress management, work-life balance, and coping skills), relationships, identity, culture, and spirituality. I use a wide range of treatment approaches including mindfulness, meditation, yoga, and biofeedback along with traditional psychotherapy and medication.
