I am a board-certified psychiatrist and psychotherapist. Trained in psychiatry and behavioral science at Northwestern and Stanford Universities, I am licensed in both Illinois and California. I have completed advanced training in psychotherapy at the Chicago Psychoanalytic Institute.
I offer psychotherapy and medication management services to adults via video-medicine across the states of California and Illinois. I aim to approach each session with openness, empathy, and a mindful, non-judgmental mode of listening. My clinical perspective is informed by psychodynamic and psychoanalytic theory.
I am currently accepting new patients, so please do feel free to reach out to schedule a free, initial consultation.

I provide psychodynamic and psychoanalytic psychotherapy. Throughout our work together, you will be encouraged to share whatever is on your mind, to speak and feel without censorship. All the while, I will be listening to and looking for the ways in which mental activity outside of your conscious awareness, in "blind spots" so to speak, may be influencing your day-to-day attitudes and actions.
