The Provider

In my approach to Psychiatry, I side-step the common “labels” of depression, anxiety, ADHD and

have a steadfast conviction that being mentally healthy is the goal of any treatment. It's feeling

energetic, confident, purposeful and connected to the people you love and interact with. It's having a

clear mind, feeling motivated and able to make sound decisions. The quality of mental health defines

one’s existence and aspirations. It's the glue to all your relationships and enables you to confidently

cope with life's inevitable challenges and losses.

Nobody is completely mentally healthy or mentally unhealthy. We all have aspects of our mental

health which could be tweaked or improved. We can feel more purposeful, clear minded and liberated

after a comprehensive evaluation. Does this mean that everyone needs to see a psychiatrist? Of course

not.....but many do reach a point in their lives when they feel frightened, overwhelmed, vulnerable,

“beaten down” and cannot function to the best of their abilities. This is when professional help is

needed.

I am respectful towards the sensitive nature of these illnesses, and after performing a meticulous

clinical assessment, I will outline a psychopharmacological treatment plan for adults, children, and

adolescents with psychiatric disorders. An avid sports fan, I believe in the “full court press”, or a comprehensive

approach to psychiatric care. 

I eschew the misconception that psychiatrists "just prescribe medication." This is not my practice

philosophy, as I focus more on psychoanalysis and well-being of the mind.

In the context of a trusting, confidential and caring relationship, the treatment I recommend will

dramatically diminish, and sometimes eliminate the pain and anguish you or your family member

feels. As a medical doctor trained in psychiatry, I can diagnose and treat a broad range of psychiatric

disorders, but as a mental health professional, I see myself a specialist in the promotion of what

fundamentally makes life a wonderful and fulfilling experience. Our practice is unique in that it offers you a 

variety of services all under the same roof for your convenience, including medication management 

and individual counseling. Please explore this website to learn more about our practice and call our office
