Psychiatrist
CA
Please schedule via Headway. I am a Harvard-trained board -certified psychiatrist with over 20 years experience who believes that evidence based treatments of mental health and holistic treatments are not mutually exclusive. I have completed fellowships at National Institute of Mental Health and Columbia University and firmly believe it is essential to consider biological, psychological and complementary treatments in any personalized care plan. I strive to empower all of my patients to take an active role in their mental health journey. I have a particular interest in ADHD, Anxiety and Depression and have published extensively on these areas including as co-author of a best selling book "Overcoming Dyslexia." Outside of my professional life, I enjoy hiking and traveling with my family.
