I’ve supported individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, trauma, substance use, and co-occurring disorders. My therapeutic approach is rooted in trauma-informed care, cognitive behavioral strategies, and supportive medication management.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My approach is warm, collaborative, and culturally sensitive. I create a safe space where you can feel heard and supported while we work together to understand your needs and goals. I use evidence-based treatments such as medication management, trauma-informed care, and supportive therapy to promote healing and balance. Clients appreciate my calm, compassionate style and the way I partner with them to find realistic, empowering solutions for lasting wellness.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

When you begin care with me, we’ll start with a comprehensive telehealth psychiatric evaluation. During this secure video session, I take time to understand your medical, mental health history, current concerns, lifestyle, and goals for treatment. This first session allows me to make an accurate diagnosis and develop a personalized plan that may include medication management, supportive psychotherapy, and education about your condition. Follow-up appointments are conducted virtually through a HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform, making it easy to attend sessions from the comfort and privacy of your home. During these visits, we’ll review your progress, discuss how you’re responding to treatment, and make adjustments as needed. My goal is to make care accessible, convenient, and collaborative. Every session is an opportunity for you to feel heard, supported, and empowered as we work together toward improved emotional balance, resilience, and overall mental wellness.
