WELCOME
I am a Columbia-trained, board certified psychiatrist who specializes in the treatment of anxiety disorders such as panic disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, illness anxiety (hypochondriasis), and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). I also have expertise in the treatment of depression, ADHD/ADD, and bipolar disorder.
​
In my practice, I strive to take a warm, collaborative, and non-judgmental stance and create an individualized treatment plan that suits your needs.
​
Because of the smaller size of my practice, I am very responsive and able to provide a high level of attention to each person. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I am conducting all sessions via telemedicine at this time. I offer evening and weekend appointments for your convenience. Reaching out for help can be hard, but I am here to guide you through the process.

MY PRACTICE
Initial Consultation
&
Follow Up
When we first meet, I will provide an in-depth 60 or 90-minute initial evaluation based on your needs. The goal of this visit is to ensure an accurate diagnosis and develop a personalized treatment plan that fits your needs.
​
For medication management, it is typical to follow up anywhere between one to three months, though closer follow up may be necessary if we are starting or changing medication. Therapy sessions are typically scheduled on a weekly or twice monthly basis.
