Female-first psychiatric care. I’m committed to listening to your needs and empowering you to make informed decisions about your mental health.

Female-first psychiatric care. Whether you're navigating pregnancy, trying to conceive, or experiencing perimenopause, I'm here to support you. If you're dealing with conditions like PMS, PMDD, PCOS, ADHD, depression, or anxiety, you deserve compassionate and expert care. As a Harvard-trained and board-certified psychiatrist specializing in women's mental health and reproductive psychiatry, I take a thoughtful approach to medication. I’m committed to listening to your needs and empowering you to make informed decisions about your mental health. I provide medication management and psychotherapy through a female-first frame: putting you, your needs, and your wellness at the forefront of our work together. I view my work as an opportunity to help women feel seen and supported through the most transformative stages of their lives. I prioritize my patients' individual needs by truly listening when others may not, recognizing their challenges that others might overlook, and empowering them to take charge of their health, wellness, and future.
