I am board certified in child, adolescent and adult psychiatry, and having worked at Harvard University with college and graduate students, as well as at Mass General Hospital with children and teens, I have a breadth of experience supporting a wide range of issues in diverse populations.
Many teens and young adults struggle with various aspects of their lives, be it identity, relationships, work/school, or past experiences that affect how they feel and navigate the world. I work with many young adults who may seem high functioning at first glance but struggle with depression, anxiety, stress, or other emotional issues. I have particular experience supporting Asians and Asian Americans navigating issues of race, identity and culture. Talk therapy and medications can be a powerful way to help people process, make sense of, and change these patterns that hold them back from living the life they want.
