I aim to provide individualized, thoughtful care to patients in a warm, private and safe environment. I'm a physician and board certified psychiatrist with expertise in adult psychopharmacology and psychotherapy. Areas of focus include mood, anxiety, personality, eating, adjustment and trauma-related disorders. I frequently work with patients facing relationship struggles, life transitions or other stresses generated by demanding and high-profile careers. During your initial consultation, I will conduct a comprehensive psychiatric assessment, after which I will make recommendations tailored to your specific needs and preferences. Treatments offered include medication management, psychotherapy or a combination of the two.
I'm a Diplomate of the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology, and a Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association. I have lectured and published on a variety of topics such as depression, personality disorders, medical student wellness and physician impairment.
I have advanced training in psychoanalytic psychotherapy and particularly enjoy working with high-functioning individuals using an insight-oriented, psychodynamic approach. I believe you are most likely to succeed in treatment when there is a strong therapeutic relationship, and I always strive to achieve this.
