My ideal clients are children (as young as 3), adults, and families. Parental involvement is crucial in therapy for children, and I advocate for supporting children with learning disabilities. I also have a strong history of helping students and parents navigate their educational rights, including at the college level. I mediate custody arrangements and troubled parent relationships, and I support parents dealing with behavioral difficulties in children or adolescents. My goal is to teach you that you will do well if you can; if you can’t, there is an issue that requires help with an emphasis on skills and understanding.

I consider it a privilege to practice medicine and to offer care to the amazing clients I work with. I especially enjoy the art of integrating science and the healing arts in my treatment of mood disorders, addictions, psychosis, and other disorders that create such great suffering. Medications can be a powerful adjunct to behavioral change, but I think my profession sometimes underestimates a person’s capacity for healing and meaningful change on their own with the right supports in place.
