Your Trusted Psychiatrist in San Mateo, CA
Established in 2009, our psychiatric practice is built on three core values: Caring, Comprehensive, and Confidential care. As a board-certified psychiatrist, I provide both in-person and online video appointments to patients in the San Francisco Bay Area. My clinical expertise spans depression, anxiety, adult ADHD, Asian-American mental health, and spirituality-related mental health concerns. With over 15 years of experience, including medical training at Northwestern University and psychiatric residency at the same institution, I combine evidence-based medication management with personalized psychotherapy. Our practice emphasizes strong physician-patient relationships as the foundation for treatment success, offering comprehensive care that integrates both therapeutic modalities.We maintain strict confidentiality through direct communication channels and private practice operations. Patients benefit from tailored treatment plans that incorporate cognitive behavioral therapy techniques, medication optimization, and culturally sensitive approaches. Our commitment to accessible care includes free 15-minute phone consultations for prospective patients. Educational resources on mental health topics are available through our blog and website to support patient understanding and engagement.
