MD
Accepting Clients

I am a Duke-trained psychiatrist specializing in behavioral sleep medicine (CBT-I), sleep apnea (OSA), and conservative psychiatric care.

Psychiatrist in Raleigh, NC

About My Clients

My ideal clients are adults across NC and FL who feel stuck in a vicious cycle of daytime burnout and nighttime racing thoughts. When standard 15-minute medication checks fail to get to the root of your exhaustion, you need a different approach. Whether you are struggling with chronic insomnia, sleep apnea anxiety, ADHD, or depression, you don't have to navigate it alone. I help uncover the biological and emotional roots of your sleeplessness and anxiety so you can truly rest.

My Background and Approach

My practice bridges the gap between behavioral sleep medicine and evidence-based psychiatry, meaning we treat both your nights and your days. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) to retrain your brain for natural sleep. As a medical doctor, I also provide general Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) management, including CPAP titration, adherence strategies, and sleep apnea anxiety support. For daytime symptoms, I provide expert medication management for anxiety, depression, and adult ADHD. To protect your long-term brain health, I practice conservative prescribing and do not utilize daily, habit-forming benzodiazepines. I view our relationship as a true collaborative partnership, ensuring you are fully educated and involved in every medical decision. Care is delivered 100% virtually via a secure telehealth platform.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that healing the mind starts with healing the night. However, beyond our biology, I also recognize that deep healing often involves our spiritual lives. Because of this, I gladly offer Christian faith-integrated psychotherapy (ACT, CBT) for patients who desire it, providing compassionate care that respects and incorporates your biblical worldview. My ultimate goal is to equip you with the tools you need to reclaim your peace of mind. To begin your journey, please visit my website to complete a brief, secure pre-screening.
