I graduated from the University of Tennessee, Memphis medical school in 1999 and then continued my training in psychiatry at Duke University where I served as chief resident of the Duke Inpatient service. I provide therapy and medication management for personality disorders, depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, sleeping disorders, addiction and attention deficit disorder. Medications are important but are not necessary in every case. I believe that through education, therapy, counseling, and sometimes medication everyone can return to their previous level of functioning and enjoy life to the fullest. I have been in practice 17yrs.

It may be depression, anxiety, or another mood disorder but I use a team-based approach because I believe the patient must be as involved as I am in the medication decision making process.
I love helping people move through different phases in their lives. It is gratifying to come alongside them on their journey toward healing. I want the patient to live as fulfilling, purpose driven life as possible, moving toward success in whatever method that means to him or her. I enjoy helping improve mental health issues so the patient is able to focus on what matters the most.

Often, inflammation in the body causes psychiatric symptoms like depression and anxiety.
Do you suffer from fatigue, poor concentration and 'brain fog', insomnia, anxiety and depression? How about gastrointestinal problems (gut-brain issues)? Have traditional psychiatric services failed to help? Or have prescribed medications created intolerable side effects? I can assist you in ways that traditional psychiatric services are not equipped to provide.
