Dr. Raja is native to northern Virginia and has held a lifelong interest in the esoteric aspects of the human mind, body, and behavior. Psychiatry, therefore, was a natural choice of specialty. Prior to matriculating at St. George’s University Medical School, she studied human anatomy at Georgetown University’s School of Medicine Summer Medical Institute. She completed her residency at Rutgers University and a geriatric psychiatry fellowship at Duke University. "One of the essential qualities of the clinician is interest in humanity, for the secret of the care of the patient is in caring for the patient." -Dr. Francis Peabody

An increasing number of people suffer from depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions. Having a mental health disorder can be frightening and overwhelming especially when one doesn’t know where to go to for help. My practice offers that place where I attempt to answer your questions and allay your fears. My work with my patients emphasizes compassion, empathy and support. During the initial assessment, I conduct a detailed Diagnostic evaluation in order to devise an Individualized and Comprehensive Treatment plan unique to the needs of each patient. I am Board Certified in both General and Forensic Psychiatry.

I am dedicated to providing compassionate and comprehensive care to individuals facing mental health challenges. My approach is rooted in empathy, respect for each person's unique journey, and a dedication to fostering a therapeutic alliance built on trust and collaboration. My philosophy of care centers on a holistic approach that considers not only the symptoms of mental illness but also the individual’s broader context—personal, familial, social, and cultural. I believe in empowering patients by actively involving them in treatment decisions, promoting autonomy, and supporting their journey toward mental wellness.

Hi there! I have been practicing outpatient psychiatry since 2005, and currently serve as the Chief Medical Officer of a hospital as well. I'm board certified in Psychiatry with additional fellowship training in Psychosomatic Medicine, and an informal and practical approach to connecting with patients that often surprises, given my years of clinical experience and C-suite hospital work. When we meet, I will be very interested in both your symptoms and your story. Together we will 'connect the dots' to interpret your experience, which will in turn help us figure out a logical diagnosis and approach to treatment.

Optimal clients don't necessarily pursue treatment with the goal of becoming 'ideal.' Instead, they seek assistance in navigating their personal life journey. When both the clinician and the client collaborate to enhance the client's overall quality of life and environment, we can achieve the best possible outcomes for the client.

My ideal client is any client who made the choice to seek help. Knowing your exact issues, needs or goals is not a requirement to be seen. We will work together to identify the issues, identify the needs and formulate achievable goals. Seeking help is the beginning and the most important step in the journey to achieve optimal mental health and should be commended. It then changes from a one man battle to a team effort. I will provide a supportive, stigma free and non-judgmental environment to enhance client empowerment, compliance, and education.

I have a genuine, realistic approach to psychiatry that relates to a variety of ages, backgrounds, and ethnicities. I originally graduated with a bachelors in Psychology from Old Dominion University. I later returned to school to become a Registered Nurse in 2006 and eventually circled back into psychiatry via psychiatric home health. I decided to return to school to be a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner after many years of educating and advocating for mental health within the adult and geriatric community. In 2016, I graduated from University of Southern Indiana with a Masters of Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and subsequently certified by ANCC to practice and prescribe as a PMHNP (Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner). I continue the rewarding practice of managing adult and geriatric patients with complex medical co-morbities that require additional expertise in managing their mental health needs. I am a family-oriented and spiritually grounded practitioner that seeks to thrive within my calling to provide a holistic and realistic approach to mental health for my patients.
