Thank you for taking the time to explore this website and for considering entrusting me with your, or your children's, psychiatric needs. I understand taking action towards finding a psychiatrist can be intimidating and, perhaps, overwhelming. This website is a way to introduce myself, my treatment philosophy and services, and resources that can help you make an informed decision.
My mission is to serve children, teenagers, and adults by providing experienced, compassionate, individualized psychiatric care that helps my patients achieve maximum wellbeing. My intention is to awaken the hope and belief in my patients that they can achieve improved mental health that leads to a more fulfilling life. I know how difficult it can be to acknowledge that life's challenges are too much to handle.
I am continuously humbled by my patients' courage in facing their problems and asking for help. I am committed to being worthy of the trust and confidence my patients place in me. My daughter was having trouble in school and we were sent to see Dr. D. My husband and I were very concerned about how a psychiatrist would approach treating our child.

Children & Adolescents
Report
Before outlining my approach to child and adolescent psychiatry, I want to assure parents that your child's mental health issues are not your fault.
Many parents blame themselves for their children's problems, but the truth is most mental disorders stem from a neurobiological basis.
Just as you wouldn't blame yourself for your child's seizure disorder, asthma or appendicitis, you cannot blame yourself for your child's mental illness.
Unfortunately, mental illness can happen to anyone and about 50% lifetime cases of mental illnesses begin by the age of 14.

Professionals & Executives
Report
Today's executives and other high-level professionals, including physicians, other allied health care providers, civic leaders, and business owners, face challenges that are particular to the current work culture of our society.
Increased scrutiny and emphasis on profits mean heavy workloads and inordinate amounts of responsibility, not necessarily with an accompanying increase in pay.
Often, professional success is inextricably intertwined with stress, anxiety, depression, and/or despair.
For physicians, the increased workload is accompanied by seemingly endless paperwork that interferes with serving your patients.
