Care Philosophy 
I am a psychiatrist who still practices psychotherapy in addition to utilizing medication in my practice.

You, the patient, come first. I listen carefully to what you say, get a background history, learn your treatment goals and work with you to craft the best possible psychiatric treatment plan based on what you need.

I am located just north of downtown Washington, D. C., convenient for Washington and the Virginia and Maryland suburbs.
