About Me
As an attending psychiatrist at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to helping patients navigate their mental health journeys with empathy and understanding. Working in the inpatient unit, I strive to create a safe and supportive environment for recovery, ensuring that patients can return to the community with the tools they need for a healthier life.
I specialize in consultation liaison psychiatry, focusing on the complex interplay between mental and physical health. My clinical expertise includes addressing the impacts of prior trauma and acute psychiatric illnesses. I am particularly interested in improving the detection and treatment of catatonia. My dedication to this field has been recognized by the Academy of Consultation Liaison Psychiatry with the Webb Fellowship Award, and I am honored to serve on the medical board of the Catatonia Foundation.
Throughout my career, I have been committed to proactive healthcare engagement, emphasizing the importance of addressing psychosocial and cultural factors to enhance patient outcomes. I thrive in NYU Langone's academic environment, which allows me to continually grow as a clinician. My work is driven by a desire to foster strong partnerships with my patients, ensuring they feel heard, supported, and empowered in their care.
My journey into psychiatry began with a move to the United States to pursue my academic goals. Inspired by the challenges and rewards of this field, I completed my residency at the University of Chicago and my fellowship at NYU Langone. The opportunity to work with a dedicated team and engage in ongoing learning has been instrumental in shaping my approach to patient care. At NYU Langone, I am proud to be part of a health system that prioritizes coordinated care, and I am committed to making a positive impact on the lives of my patients.
