I am a psychiatrist at Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital, specializing in caring for children and adolescents. I work with young patients facing various challenges, including mood disorders like depression and disruptive mood dysregulation disorder, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, autism spectrum disorder and psychotic disorders.

In my practice, I take a holistic approach to care, considering the biological, psychological and social factors that impact each patient. I listen with empathy and strive to create a non-judgmental space where patients and their families feel comfortable. I believe in partnering with parents and children in developing treatment plans, ensuring that their needs and goals are always central to the process. My goal is to give them the best possible start for a happy and healthy future. It’s gratifying to help young people navigate their mental health and set them on a path toward well-being.

At Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital, I join a team of dedicated psychiatrists who specialize in guiding children and adolescents through pivotal moments in their lives. Together, we are committed to providing compassionate, comprehensive care that empowers young patients and their families to navigate challenges with resilience and hope.
