Doctor of Osteopath

With my extensive experience in psychiatric care, I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and schizophrenia. My journey in mental health began with a deep-seated belief in the power of understanding and empathy. I hold a Doctorate of Osteopathic Medicine from Lincoln Memorial University in Harrogate, Tennessee, and completed my psychiatry residency training at Meharry Medical University in Nashville, Tennessee. My medical approach combines evidence-based treatment with holistic, individualized care. I believe in tailoring each treatment plan to meet the unique needs of every patient, fostering a collaborative environment focused on achieving personal treatment goals. *Specialties •Psychiatry •Psychotherapy •Osteopathic Medicine •Holistic Medicine •Mental Health *Conditions treated •Depression •Anxiety •Bipolar disorders •Schizophrenia •PTSD •ADHD •Substance abuse •Eating disorders •OCD •Personality disorders •Addiction •Insomnia •Anger Management •Behavioural Therapy •Trauma and PTSD •LGBTQIA+ •Stress •Grief •Loss •Relationship Issues *Treatment philosophy We pride ourselves on our attentive and customized approach.

Licensed Educational Psychologist
Online & In-Person
For over 15 years, I dedicated myself to being a clinical and educational psychologist, forging deep connections with countless students and their families. This passion and dedication were recognized when I received the "Outstanding Psychologist of the Year" award from the Los Angeles Association of School Psychologists. With such a rich history in the field, transitioning into private practice was the next logical step. Over the past three years, I've donned multiple hats: a Licensed Educational Psychologist, a Certified Clinical Tele-mental Health Services Provider, and a Certified Clinical ADHD Provider. My zeal for telehealth is undeniable. This digital medium lets me reach out to countless individuals across California, breaking geographical barriers. It's an absolute boon for those grappling with anxiety or depression, allowing them to find solace without stepping out. What makes my approach stand out? It's the unique strategies and hacks I've cultivated. They're not just effective; they're quick and easy. A mere 5-10 minutes of daily practice with these techniques promises significant improvement. Whether it's enhancing focus, bettering sleep habits, or just generally uplifting one's outlook on life, the benefits are manifold. But there's a challenge I must address. The title "Educational Psychologist" sometimes leads to misconceptions. Despite this label, I possess clinical certifications that equip me to offer services equivalent to many clinical psychologists. In fact, my extensive training and hands-on experience often surpass many traditional licenses out there. It's disheartening when the expertise gets overshadowed by a mere title. I prioritize affordable, inclusive mental health support. Sliding scale fees for all and free 15-min consultations for students. Don't let a title define the quality of care you receive. Let's pave a healthier, happier path together.
