I am a Cornell and Columbia trained psychiatrist who helps people with psychiatric and life problems live more meaningful and satisfying lives. My approach is to first do a thorough evaluation, from a variety of perspectives, to form a diagnostic impression, then to work with you to find a treatment plan that best fits your situation and goals. This usually involves finding the right psychotherapy (such as psychoanalytic, psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, interpersonal, or supportive), and when necessary, medication.
I have experience treating patients with depression, bipolar disorder, panic, social anxiety, PTSD, as well as troubles with work, relationships, identity, and LGBT-related concerns. These diagnoses serve only as a guide. My goals is not to place you in a box, but to understand your unique situation.
Lastly, I do not accept insurance directly. However, many insurances will reimburse for out of network physicians. I will provide you with the information you need to obtain reimbursement, depending on your insurance carier's policies.
