About Me
I am a general adult psychiatrist with over 20 years of experience, having completed my residency training and forensic fellowship at Yale. During my time at Yale, I had the privilege of serving as program chief resident, and I continue to maintain an academic affiliation with Yale and the psychiatric community in New Haven, Connecticut.
My practice includes pharmacotherapy, with a focus on mood disorders, postpartum depression, anxiety, insomnia, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), ADHD, OCD, weight loss, geriatric medicine, psychotic disorders and forensic psychiatry.
I am dedicated to forming collaborative and reciprocal relationships with my patients. My goal is to meet their mental health needs in a medical capacity while empowering them to lead more fulfilling, healthy, and rewarding lifestyles. I offer a range of private treatment options, including pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy, as well as a combination of therapy and medication management. I also can explore alternative therapies and bio/psycho/social/spiritual counseling for patients interested in a more holistic approach to their mental health.
In addition to my expertise in general psychiatry, I have specialty training in geriatric psychiatry and forensic psychiatry. I have treated a broad spectrum of patients, from adolescence to geriatric, addressing issues including psychotic disorders, OCD, attention deficit disorders, and mood disorders, among other psychiatric concerns.
Whether you seek medication management, psychotherapy, or a combination of both, my goal is to support you in achieving your best mental health outcomes.
I look forward to welcoming you and assisting you on your mental health journey.
