Throughout my career as a trained adult psychiatrist, I have helped hundreds of patients gain control of their diverse and complex struggles. I use my knowledge and expertise to provide the best care possible for my patients and their families.

As a developmental psychiatrist with a psychodynamic approach, I possess a deeper understanding of my patients. I recognize the ongoing struggles they’re currently facing as well as the importance of their earlier development, their family and their upbringing, their culture and the impact of other significant relationships in their life, and how all these factors play a role in making them who they are.   

Through my detailed assessment and consultation, I want to develop a good understanding of my patient’s life, being mindful of their suffering and limitations as well as their strengths and unique qualities; and from this knowledge create a clinical formulation and provide treatment recommendations that are best suited for them and their family.
