I have always been interested in the interplay between our minds, our bodies, and our surroundings. That interest has led me on all sorts of adventures in learning how we evolve into such unique individuals. Medical school was my goal since kindergarten – it’s true! Psychiatry and the bio-psycho-social approach, which takes into account every aspect of an individual’s life, is the field of medicine that makes the most sense to me. As an integrative psychiatrist I am open to both traditional approaches and complementary/alternative approaches to wholeness and healing.

I aim to establish a warm, collaborative relationship with patients, providing evidence-based support and intervention in a manner that is understandable, helpful and compassionate.

It is a privilege to provide this care, and I defend confidentiality as paramount. I encourage mindful self-compassion and forgiveness as a therapeutic approach to alleviating many depressive and anxious problems.
