What should a new client know about working with you?

I have a passion for helping individuals develop a long, meaningful, and productive approach to holistic health. My primary goal as a psychiatrist is to promote the mental health and emotional intelligence of my patients so that they can live happy and productive lives.

I am a proponent of complementing medication treatments with various therapeutic modalities such as Psychodynamic, CBT, DBT, Positive Psychology and Behavioral Modification.
