I am a general adult psychiatrist, board certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology who treats primarily Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, OCD, and Bipolar Disorder. I also specialize in peri-natal mental health, fertility, and menopause. I have a particular interest in the mental health of immigrants/children of immigrants, in those going through divorce, polyamorous folks and LGBTQ+ patients. I enjoy working with people who are nervous to take medications or who have never taken psychiatric medications before.

I grew up in the Midwest, went to UW Madison for college where I majored in Anthropology. I earned my medical degree from the University of Rochester and completed Psychiatry residency at the University of Southern California/LAC+USC.

I believe that while medication can be an important part of healing, it should be combined with therapy, nutrition, meditation, exercise, and other significant lifestyle changes. My holistic approach to treatment is focused on building trust with patients, working with them to come up with highly personal solutions to change their lives for the better.
