I focus on depression including young adult-onset depression, anxiety, psychosis, trauma-related issues, and bipolar depression.
My passion stems from a deep-seated desire to help those in crisis or in need. I believe humans are complicated and not perfect all the time. All of those aspects make the whole person. I use my clinical skills to guide people in the right direction and build treatment plans to help my patients find relief from the suffering they may be experiencing. In working with patients, I meet them where they are emotionally and build a collaborative partnership to help each person live their happiest, best lives.

I have always been the friend that people have been able to turn to and consider a good listener. I love hearing people’s stories. While initially interested in psychology- and receiving my undergraduate degree in it- I initially resisted the inclination to go into psychiatry during medical school. However, during my clinical rotations, the psychiatry rotation was the one that left me feeling the most excited, engaged, and “alive.” I recognized this was my calling and continue to feel humbled and grateful to work with my patients.

I have an interest in helping adolescent and young adult populations. I believe that providing mental health resources to people in the foundation stages of their life can set them up for success in the future. This also gives more time to figure out what works best for each patient to grow with them. I first earned a degree in Psychology to pursue my passion for the mind and its abilities. But after graduation, I realized I wanted to be in a career that helps people understand the mind and helps them become the best versions of themselves through the healing process.

Trauma and PTSD Psychiatrists

When should I seek treatment for trauma?

Not everyone who undergoes trauma needs therapy to heal, but many do. If, after experiencing a traumatic event, you find yourself struggling with symptoms such as nightmares, dissociation, irritability, or emotional numbness—especially if these symptoms last more than a month and are severe enough to interfere with your daily functioning—you may benefit from seeking out therapy with a trauma-informed provider.

How long does trauma therapy take?

Different types of therapy for trauma unfold on different timelines. Prolonged exposure therapy and cognitive processing therapy, for example, each take about three months, while trauma-informed CBT may last anywhere from 8 to 25 sessions. Other approaches, especially those that are less structured or that incorporate elements from multiple modalities, may be more open-ended, though many patients report feeling better within the first few months of treatment.

What happens if trauma is left untreated?

Unaddressed trauma can have serious—even devastating—effects on relationships, career, and day-to-day functioning. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can lead people to distrust or lash out at others, making it difficult to maintain intimate relationships; it can also trigger symptoms such as flashbacks or hyperreactivity that can interfere with a person’s ability to function effectively, personally and/or professionally. Some sufferers turn to drugs to find relief. Symptoms may lessen on their own with time, but there is no guarantee that PTSD will resolve on its own.

Can PTSD come back after treatment?

It is possible for PTSD symptoms to recur months or years after successful treatment. This is because, like most mental health disorders, it is not possible to “cure” PTSD, and stressful life events may cause symptoms to recur in even the most resilient individuals. There is no shame in re-experiencing PTSD symptoms nor in returning to therapy when such relapses occur; indeed, many forms of trauma therapy explicitly encourage periodic “maintenance sessions” to reinforce coping skills and ensure that symptoms stay manageable.
