About My Clients

My practice focuses on adults, adolescents, and geriatric patients. Many of my clients face mental health challenges, compounded by socio-economic issues.

My Background and Approach

I strive to provide a safe, non-judgmental, respectful, and, above all, supportive, space for my clients, where they receive the professional care and guidance they need to practice the self-care and self-love that will enable them to rise above their diagnosis, and live the fulfilling life they deserve. I provide individualized care: each client’s concerns and preferences guide the custom-care plan we devise for recovery and full functionality, as an integral part of developing a treatment plan of action that serves the specific needs of each client. My approach is client-centered. Holistic, and individualized. My treatment philosophy is anchored on the fact that, to provide adequate treatment, one must address not only the biological and psychological factors contributing to one's distress, but also the socio-economic factors that so often are contributing factors.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

The well-being of the client is paramount. Sustained relief depends on an infrastructure that covers all areas that contribute to the crisis. To that end, we collaborate with professionals in government and other organizations, as well as in private practice, to devise and deliver the best care possible for our clients. My practice hinges on a strong commitment to individualized care, on building trust and long-term relationships with our clients, on listening to, and addressing, their needs, and on delivering a treatment plan with maximum potential for success. Compassion and empathy are at the core of my practice in psychiatry and psychotherapy. Change only comes from those who care.
