I believe in a balanced approach to psychiatric health through a model that integrates medication, wellness techniques, supplements, cognitive behavioral therapy, and thorough medical evaluation. I specialize in the treatment of aging and older adults, with specialty expertise in the field of geriatric psychiatry. I am also a member of the North American Menopause Society and have a specialized interest in the area of the menopause and the perimenopausal transition, especially as it impacts mental health. I very much enjoy the practice of clinical medicine and chose psychiatry because I wanted a career that allowed me to spend time getting to know my patients and understand their daily lives, not to have to rush through from on person to the next. I believe in treating a person, not a diagnosis, and never approach patients with a “formula” for how I will manage their care. Everyone is an individual and therefore each person requires a unique treatment plan and approach. I believe in a mixture of new cutting edge diagnostics and centuries old homeopathic medicine to give my patients the best care.
