I am currently accepting new patients. I work with children, adolescents and adults and treat a range of psychiatric diagnoses with a focus in management of depressive, bipolar and anxiety disorders. I takes a holistic approach to care and work to develop a therapeutic partnership with my patients. I emphasize age-appropriate medication education and make sure to take time to ensure that patients of all ages understand what medication they are taking, why they are taking it, what it does in their body and what the potential side effects are.
I place emphasis on psycho-education to instill confidence in my clients to make informed decisions about their care. Every patient is different and I tailor treatment to each and every patient I see. I am happy to coordinate care with your therapist, primary care doctor, or other specialists to ensure your optimal wellness.
Being an advocate for you, and your child, is at the center of my practice. I look forward to working together!
