About
Welcome!
Thank you for considering trusting me with this component of your overall health and well-being.
​
I tremendously enjoy the field of Behavioral Health and working with different practitioners and medical specialties. I am a Board Certified Adult Psychiatrist. I trained in the Queens/Long Island areas of New York and relocated to Maryland about two years ago.
​
I evaluate and treat adults for symptoms of Psychotic Disorders, Mood and Anxiety Disorders. I also have experience and training in Geriatric Psychiatry.
​
I hope that I can help you progress to your optimal self. Based on your needs, we will determine if you will benefit from therapy and/or medications. Depending on the individual, this may happen quickly or may require time and patience. Additionally, I try to stay current with the field's recommendations for ideal care and treatment.
​
I am personable, patient, empathetic, forthright and have the utmost respect for patient confidentiality. I have almost 11 years of experience and have treated individuals from a wide range of backgrounds and life experiences. I have worked in outpatient clinics, university settings, Psychiatric Emergency Rooms and correctional facilities.
I certainly hope that I will be able to help you.

Telepsychiatry
At this time, I am only offering Telepsychiatry visits via a HIPPA secure patient portal. Ideally, we are trying to simulate time in an office setting. In order to optimize our appointment, please keep the following checklist in mind:
​
- Locate a private room or space with no distractions and good internet connectivity.
- Obtain a device with a camera, microphone and a very good internet connection.
- Device options include a Smartphone, I-pad/Tablet, Laptop/Desktop computer.
- Ensure that the device is fully charged or connected to a power outlet during your appointment.
- Secure a pen and paper for notes and questions if needed.
- Sign into the HIPPA secure visit approximately 5 minutes before your scheduled appointment.
Benefits of Telepsychiatry:
-
Convenience of no commuting to/from a physician’s office.
-
Able to safely talk, see facial expressions, and convey difficulties without a mask.
