I am a licensed psychiatrist with over 20 years of experience dedicated to helping individuals achieve healthy, fulfilling lives. My medical training at the University of Texas Medical School and residencies in General Psychiatry and Child & Adolescent Psychiatry at St. Vincent's Medical Center in New York City have equipped me with deep expertise in addressing complex mental health challenges. Board Certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology, I integrate evidence-based practices with personalized care to meet each patient's unique needs. With private practices in Providence, RI, and New York City, I offer accessible, high-quality mental health services to diverse populations. My commitment to advancing therapeutic approaches includes conducting seminars on group therapy for the American Group Psychotherapy Association and supervising psychiatric residents at Brown University Medical School.I specialize in treating conditions such as depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, ADHD, and relationship issues through individual, group, and family therapy. As a licensed physician, I also provide medication management when necessary to complement therapeutic progress. My practice emphasizes empowering patients to develop life skills that foster resilience and personal growth. I have extensive experience working with children, adolescents, and adults, addressing challenges ranging from medical illness-related mental health concerns to trauma recovery. By combining traditional therapies with innovative treatments like Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), I strive to deliver comprehensive, cutting-edge care that prioritizes patient well-being and long-term mental wellness.

Services
Individual therapy
Individual therapy helps patients understand and resolve personal issues through one-on-one sessions. This approach focuses on developing life skills to overcome challenges like depression, anxiety, and relationship problems. Each session provides a safe space to explore thoughts and emotions that impact daily functioning and well-being.
Group therapy
Group therapy addresses isolation and improves interpersonal relationships through guided sessions with peers facing similar challenges. Participants gain new perspectives while learning coping strategies for conditions like anxiety, depression, and trauma. The therapist facilitates skill development to enhance quality of life through shared experiences.
Medication management
As a licensed physician, medication management involves prescribing and monitoring psychiatric medications to stabilize mood and support therapy outcomes. This service addresses conditions like depression and anxiety while minimizing side effects through careful evaluation and dosage adjustments tailored to each patient's needs.
TMS therapy
TMS therapy uses magnetic pulses to treat depression by stimulating specific brain regions regulating mood. This non-invasive outpatient procedure offers an alternative to medication with fewer side effects. It's particularly effective for treatment-resistant depression and requires no anesthesia or recovery time.
Child & adolescent treatment
Specialized treatment for children and teens addresses developmental challenges, behavioral issues, and emotional disorders. Services include individual and family therapy for conditions like ADHD, anxiety, and trauma. Parent guidance sessions help families implement effective coping strategies and support systems for young patients.
