I’m a psychiatrist with an integrative approach to mental health care. My practice weaves together mindfulness-based strategies, a broad range of therapeutic modalities, and medication when appropriate—all tailored to support each person’s unique path to healing and wholeness.
I earned my medical degree and completed my psychiatry residency at UCLA, where I was honored to receive the prestigious David Geffen Medical Scholarship, a full-ride merit-based award. Prior to this, I graduated summa cum laude from the University of Colorado, where I was deeply engaged in my studies and developed a strong foundation in pre-medical sciences.
In addition to my core training, I have pursued specialized certifications in couples and intimacy therapy (AACAST) and perinatal loss and grief (Seleni Institute). I have a strong interest in Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), reproductive psychiatry, and OCD exposure therapy, and have completed elective training in each of these areas to support a comprehensive and evidence-based approach to care.
In my practice, I offer a safe, empathetic, and inclusive space—particularly for those navigating trauma, loss, identity, or life transitions. It’s a privilege to walk alongside people as they rediscover meaning, connection, and hope.
Thank you for considering me as a partner in your mental health journey. I look forward to working together.
