About Me

After graduating from Georgetown School of Medicine in 2008, I honed my psychiatry skills first at Mt. Sinai School of Medicine where I completed my general psychiatry training in 2011 and finished my specialty training in child and adolescent psychiatry at NYU in 2013. Fast forward to today and my career as a child psychiatrist thus far has been immensely rewarding. However, there is much work to be done to improve the lives and wellbeing of children. We can’t afford to miss out on the opportunity to help every child have a good start in life and a healthy upbringing thereafter.

Currently, I work at Medstar Georgetown University Hospital, dividing my time between seeing patients, supervising the next generation of child psychiatrists, working with medical students and collaborating on innovative interventions to meet the needs of the community and beyond. I am the medical director of an infant and early childhood mental health clinic, supporting parents and children to promote mental wellness from as early as possible.

I enjoy working with families and individuals to mitigate the effects of anxiety, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, mood symptoms, autism spectrum disorders, ODD, as well as mental health concerns in adults, using holistic strategies and also medications if warranted.
