Psychiatry that fits
who you are.
I am a psychiatrist. I work with adults. I offer therapy and medication together — carefully, honestly, and at your pace.
Individual Psychotherapy
Talk therapy for adults. Psychodynamic and existential in orientation. Collaborative, honest, and unhurried.
Medication Management
Careful prescribing and deprescribing, only when needed. Medication works best alongside real conversation.
Group Psychotherapy
Coming soonLaunching in 2027. An existential group inspired by Irvin Yalom's work. Isolation often heals best in company.
About
“Colleagues describe me as endlessly curious. I ask questions until something clicks. I believe every story has more layers.”
I trained at Mayo Clinic, completed my psychiatry residency in Minnesota, and am currently a Shaffer Fellow at Columbia studying adolescent mental health. This practice is built for adults — and shaped by everything I have learned about the human mind along the way.
