TREATMENT PHILOSOPHY

I specialize in working with patients with ages 10 to 30 struggling with focus, mood, or anxiety. I believe in both medication management and therapy and strive to create an individualized plan to suit the needs of each patient. I use scientific, evidence-based treatments. I value working with families and have a holistic approach, since sleep, nutrition, and exercise are significant moderators of mental health. 

Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is my area of expertise, an invisible and often misdiagnosed cause of distress and disability, particularly among women, minorities, and very intelligent people. Unmasking ADHD is life-changing, and often cited by my patients as a major turning point in their lives. 

I love working as a psychiatrist. It is incredibly gratifying to help people get unstuck to meet their goals, repair their relationships, families, and self-esteem, and to help people see what they are truly capable of when the invisible barriers are removed.
