My passion is working with other clinicians and healers. I offer 1:1 sessions and group programs to help the clinicians themselves to do their own inner work, trauma work, inner child work, and emotional release work. I use mind-body medicine modalities such as hypnotherapy, breathwork, and somatic release work to get into the subconscious mind and body in order to release deep rooted pain, patterns, shock, and trauma from the source in which is was created/ stored.

Many people experiencing emotional distress seek a conversation about whether medication or psychotherapy might be a good idea to include in their treatment plan. The conversation begins with building a trusting relationship, followed by the most accurate diagnosis possible. My approach is one of restraint, and my default is to base the treatment primarily on skills and lifestyle changes that evolve in psychotherapy. I love to see pharmacology prove to be an only temporary part of the recovery process.

I am a general psychiatrist serving adults of all ages. My job is to help you recover and thrive. I use a gentle, supportive style informed by the latest scientific evidence to guide you toward health. In my medical training, I was taught the art of whole person care. I learned that a patient's needs often go beyond the healing of the body. Being the whole person that you are, you come with psychological, emotional, intellectual, cultural, relational, and spiritual faculties that are equally affected by your illness. Together, we will integrate important aspects of who you are into the assessment and treatment of your concerns.
