Reproductive Psychiatry & Integrative Women's Mental Health Practitioner
Online & In-Person
With 8 years of experience as an adult psychiatrist and Board Certification, I specialize in Reproductive Psychiatry and Integrative Women's Mental Health. As a Harvard-trained physician with a Master of Science in Narrative Medicine from Columbia University, I've had the privilege of delivering lectures for prestigious organizations like The American Psychiatric Association. My primary aim is to empower you to thrive, moving beyond mere day-to-day management. I am deeply committed to equipping you with the knowledge you need to make well-informed choices regarding your health. Within a female-centered approach, I provide medication management and psychotherapy, prioritizing your well-being at the core of our work together. I firmly believe that women deserve exceptional support and care from the onset of menses through menopause. Our collaboration is based on a partnership, and I am dedicated to ensuring you feel genuinely acknowledged, supported, and heard throughout your journey. Additionally, I am deeply passionate about social justice and the exploration of racial and maternal healthcare issues. A significant portion of my practice is devoted to assisting women of color in navigating the unique challenges they face while seeking top-quality, culturally sensitive medical care. As a reproductive psychiatrist, I possess extensive expertise and training to guide you through hormonally-driven life transitions with evidence-based care. My knowledge of integrative and holistic healthcare enables me to craft tailored treatment plans aimed at enhancing your overall well-being. My work has been prominently featured across a variety of platforms and publications, including renowned outlets such as CNN and the Journal of the American Medical Association. Your health and well-being are at the heart of everything I do, and I look forward to supporting you on your journey to better mental health and overall wellness.

I’m an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (#136748) supervised by Adina M. Ascher, PhD, LCSW (#28900). I received my Bachelor’s in Psychology in 2000, and my Masters in Business Administration in Marketing from Drexel University in 2004.

Leaning into my village, we welcomed our second child while I was in school. I completed my practicum at Liberation Institute, providing accessible mental health services to clients in San Francisco and through out California.

I am grateful to have completed The Gottman Institute Level 1 and Level 2 Training. Currently, I am training with Postpartum Support International and receiving my Maternal Mental Health Certificate. I facilitate a safe place for my clients to experience the ups and downs of having a baby. I have continuously helped my clients step into a more holistic narrative of themselves, and connect more fully in their partnerships through the rollercoaster ride of IVF, IUI, and or adoption. I have successfully helped couples turn towards each other and feel a renewed closeness in their connection. My priority is to reflect kindness and support during the challenges of family planning.
