I have completed both my adult psychiatry residency training as well as child and adolescent fellowship training at the University of Virginia, and have received my board certification from the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology.
The primary focus of my practice is seeing children and adolescents, though I see adults as well. I have experience treating a wide range of conditions, with particular expertise in ADHD, Mood Disorders, Anxiety Disorders, as well as Autism. I provide a diagnostic evaluation, and then work with you to determine the preferred treatment strategy, whether it involves therapy, evidenced-based medication management, or both.
