"As a physician I believe that the most effective care is rooted in honesty, collaboration, and consistency. My patients can expect a practical and thoughtful partner in their care and my commitment to working alongside them to help meet their goals."
I am a board-certified adult psychiatrist, and I provide medication management and brief psychotherapy. I graduated from medical school at the University of Illinois College of Medicine. I completed my general adult psychiatry residency at the University of Illinois College of Medicine and served as chief resident. After residency, I completed a forensic psychiatry fellowship at Northwestern University.
My clinical interests and expertise cover a range of psychiatric disorders in the adult population including depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, psychotic disorders, and post-traumatic stress disorder. My clinical approach is flexible, patient-centered, and rooted in evidenced based psychiatric care.
