I am a board-certified Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist, specializing in treating children and teens with mental health concerns.  While I am experienced in treating a variety of disorders (as noted below), I have a particular interest and expertise in treating anxiety disorders and obsessive-compulsive disorders.  I thoroughly enjoy working with young people and their families, and believe that treatment should be holistic, collaborative, and carried out in a supportive and empathic environment.  I welcome patients and families from all backgrounds, religions, genders, races, ethnicities, and sexual orientations.  I employ evidence-based medication treatments (when appropriate), lifestyle interventions, brief therapy interventions, and recommendations for more extensive therapy interventions when necessary.
