About Me
As a psychiatrist at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to providing compassionate and comprehensive care to my patients. I believe that mental health is a crucial component of overall wellbeing, and I am committed to helping individuals regain their health and functionality. I find immense fulfillment in my work, knowing that I can make a significant difference in the lives of those struggling with mental illness.
I specialize in child and adolescent psychiatry, but my practice also extends to treating adults with conditions such as depression, mania, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), psychosis, and substance abuse. With over a decade of experience in the field, I have honed my skills in managing these complex conditions. My approach is rooted in empathy, flexibility, and the ability to navigate difficult emotions, ensuring that each patient receives personalized and effective care.
Throughout my career, I have focused on proactive healthcare engagement, emphasizing the importance of building trust and rapport with my patients. Effective communication is key to understanding their unique needs and fostering a strong therapeutic relationship. I am committed to continuous professional growth, always approaching my patients with curiosity, an open mind, and humility.
My journey into psychiatry was driven by a desire to serve an underserved population. Mental illness can be isolating and devastating, and I am passionate about providing the support and treatment needed to help my patients lead fulfilling lives. My educational background includes a doctor of osteopathy degree, which has equipped me with a holistic approach to patient care. At NYU Langone, I collaborate with a team of specialists, ensuring that my patients receive coordinated and seamless care.
