About Me

Care Philosophy

  • I believe in the mind / body connection and treat people from a holistic perspective taking into account a person's whole life experience including but not limited to past and current stressors and cultural beliefs.  I believe medications are just one tool in the psychiatrist's toolbox and that therapy and lifestyle changes are equally important tools to help improve mind and body.  I am an active listener and take the time to get to fully understand a person's situation and mindset.
