I graduated from my child/adolescent fellowship in 2023 with experience in medication management and psychotherapy with children, adolescents, and adults.
Thank you for visiting my profile. After completing medical school at the University of Pittsburgh, I entered psychiatry because I saw the impact psychological pain and suffering have on a person, including their health, functioning, and relationships. I saw how people get stuck and feel defined by that pain and suffering. Over the course of my training at Westchester Medical Center in general and child/adolescent psychiatry and in independent practice experiences in inpatient, outpatient, and emergency settings, I had the privilege of helping people heal and emerge with a better understanding of themselves and their world.

As a board-certified child and adolescent, and adult psychiatrist- I am experienced in considering how aspects of a person's family background, developmental history, and biological factors build upon each other to contribute to their current clinical picture.
I am passionate about helping children, adolescents, and adults to feel better understood as individuals, reach their personal goals, and forge more meaningful relationships. This can be particularly challenging for those who have experienced trauma in the past, and I am committed to helping these individuals attain the same level of fulfillment in their lives.

The world can be a difficult place, and my calling is to help by getting to know you as a human being with a story. I specialize in child, adolescent, and adult psychiatry — I treat a wide range of ages and difficulties. There are times when the careful use of medication may be helpful and even life-saving — and medication may not always address the needs of the whole person. I can also help you write and rewrite your story with an integration of compassion, common sense, and years of experience in a variety of evidence-based psychotherapies. I am licensed in NY, CA, NJ, and CT.

I am an adult, child, and adolescent psychiatrist working primarily through individual psychotherapy. I see most of my patients on at least a weekly basis. Although I do sometimes prescribe medication, the management of medication is not my primary focus. I believe in psychotherapy because it is more effective than medication for most concerns, and because it can be a powerful, relationship-based experience that works to close past wounds. As a therapist, I try to always be open and compassionate as I listen and intervene.

I am trained to treat people at all life stages. I do especially enjoy helping children and adolescents feel better and reach their full potential. When working with children, it is crucial to do an in-depth evaluation to look at the "whole picture," as all children exist within their own web of relationships (family, friends, schools, extracurricular activities). I develop personalized treatment plans that use evidence-based therapy, medications or a combination to help children and their families achieve better mental health and family functioning.

I hold a General Psychiatry degree from New York Presbyterian Hospital-Cornell Medical Center and a Child & Adolescent Psychiatry degree from New York University, where I am a Clinical Professor of Psychiatry.
It is a privilege to do what I do on a daily basis; working with the "body/mind connection". I love working with people and going through their life stages together; adolescents, college students, young adults and then adults. I believe that the modality of treatment should be suited to the patient's needs. I have trained through different schools and continue to do so. Once we work together on identifying their issues, we work on them with a "tailored treatment", that said; individual psychotherapy, mindfulness meditation, complementary treatment with vitamins, exercises and if needed medication.

Child Psychiatrists
Child psychiatrists in New York use their medical experience to diagnose and treat disorders of thinking and feeling, as well as behavior affecting children and their families.

A child can see a psychiatrist for a range of issues from depression and anxiety, to eating disorders and trauma.
