As a psychiatrist at NYU Langone Psychiatry Associates, I am dedicated to providing patient-centered care through an individualized approach. I believe in partnering with my patients to identify and target treatment goals, working collaboratively to gain insight, flexibility, and resilience. My commitment is to help patients navigate the complexities of their lives, ensuring they feel supported and understood.
In addition to medication management, I specialize in various therapy modalities, including couples and family therapy, sex therapy, supportive psychotherapy, and psychodynamic psychotherapy. My areas of focus also encompass life transitions, in vitro fertilization (IVF)/reproductive health, and the immigrant/first-generation experience. This diverse expertise allows me to address patients with a wide range of mental health concerns, tailoring treatments to meet the unique needs of each patient.
My journey into psychiatry was driven by a fascination with the human experience and the impact of personal history on beliefs and behaviors. I completed the New York Psychoanalytic Society & Institute Preparatory Program in Psychoanalysis and Dynamic Psychotherapy, which has enriched my practice. Additionally, I was honored with the Frieda Plotkin Award for Excellence in Psychotherapy at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, recognizing my dedication and passion for the field. As chief resident, I developed and taught an orientation and morning report curriculum, further honing my communication and problem-solving skills.
At our NYU Langone Faculty Practice, my colleagues and I leverage each other’s expertise to provide personalized treatments. This collaborative environment ensures that our patients receive comprehensive and compassionate care, benefiting from the collective knowledge and experience of our interdisciplinary team.
