About Me
Navigating mental health can feel daunting, especially with a complex history. My three decades as a psychiatrist mean I am well-equipped to support you in feeling better. I focus on understanding your unique biology and personal journey. My approach offers a steady, informed path for those seeking clarity and stability. We can address even intricate concerns with confidence and care.
Approach
When problems are layered by biology and life events, my focus is on unfolding them carefully so interventions feel practical and tolerable. I see adults in Orinda and online, working in English, and shape sessions to fit your rhythms and responsibilities so progress isn’t disruptive. Sessions combine focused assessment, mindful practice, and thoughtful exploration of long-standing patterns, with small, testable changes between meetings and regular review of what helps. Those seeking steady, evidence-informed collaboration often find this way of working useful.
