Message to clients

I'm a Board-Certified Psychiatrist who is also Board-Certified as a Lifestyle Medicine Physician.

I appreciate and enjoy the opportunity to help anyone achieve better physical and mental health and improve their quality of life.

Integrative psychiatry is based on the understanding that traditional psychiatric treatment can be greatly enhanced by attention to lifestyle influences and evidence-based complementary approaches. 

I'm interested in providing comprehensive care to help you pursue the goals that matter to you. Psychotherapy, medication management, training in meditation and mindfulness as well as attention to exercise, nutrition and mind-body therapies are some options which may be helpful - according to your preference.
