What should a new client know about working with you?
Welcome - I’m so glad you’re here. Whether you’re seeking support for the first time or returning to care, I approach our work together with warmth, respect, and genuine curiosity about your story. Here’s a little bit about my style and therapeutic approach to help you feel prepared and comfortable.
My Style: Warm, Collaborative, and Integrative
I aim to create a safe, judgment-free space where you can show up as your full self. My style is warm, direct when needed, and always compassionate. I believe in building a strong therapeutic alliance — that means our relationship is a key part of your healing process. You’ll be seen, heard, and supported in your goals.
I collaborate with you every step of the way, honoring your pace while also helping you move toward meaningful growth. We’ll explore your concerns holistically — mind, body, and life context and tailor treatment to what works best for you.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I provide sophisticated mental health care grounded in the understanding that the mind and body are intrinsically connected. My practice uses an integrative framework, combining evidence-based psychiatry with a deep appreciation for each person's unique biology and life circumstances.
Our work begins with a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation to create a 360-degree view of your well-being. This assessment informs an accurate diagnosis and allows us to build a highly personalized treatment plan that aligns with your goals.
When psychopharmacology is indicated for conditions such as depression, anxiety, or ADHD, I employ a precision-medicine approach. We will have a transparent discussion about your options, and I may recommend advanced tools like pharmacogenetic testing to move beyond trial-and-error, ensuring a safer and more effective treatment. However, medication is always integrated into a holistic plan.
Our follow-up sessions synthesize medication management with targeted, supportive talk therapy. While I am not a traditional psychotherapist, our work will incorporate therapeutic principles from trauma-informed care, CBT, and mindfulness to facilitate emotional processing and skill-building. We will also focus on foundational pillars of health, including sleep, nutrition, and stress management, as they are essential for sustainable mental wellness. My goal is to function as your trusted partner, applying a comprehensive and modern approach to help you feel understood and achieve optimal health.
