BECOMING A PATIENT

Patients

Psychiatrists are medical professionals who can prescribe medicine and are also trained in psychotherapy. We have the ability to look at not only the psychological and social dimensions of individuals but also the biological. For patients who are interested in medication, I offer a personalized approach to help you take control of your health.

Many people need help working through the emotional issues that are affecting their relationships and preventing them from reaching their personal goals. My aim is to help individuals explore their feelings to overcome the obstacles that lie in the way of gaining acceptance of themselves and achieving their full potential. 

Having a good rapport with your psychiatrist is as important as the treatment itself. For this reason, I provide a brief telephone consultation at no charge to answer any questions you may have.
