I believe in a collaborative, comprehensive approach to mental health. YOU ARE THE EXPERT ON YOUR OWN BRAIN. My job is just to help translate your internal experience and provide education and guidance on how to manage your unique wiring.

I combine evidence-based treatments, such as medication management and supportive therapy, while empowering you with tools for long-term wellness.

Absolutely. Coordinating care with your existing therapist, primary care physician, or other healthcare professionals can be vital to your progress. With your consent, I’m happy to work as part of your broader care team.
Initial consultations typically last 60 minutes, allowing us to explore your needs thoroughly. Follow-up sessions are usually 20 minutes, but this can vary depending on the complexity of your care. I have very limited slots available for those who would like to do combination medication management and therapy which are 30 minutes (and sometimes—you may even get sent with homework!).
