About
I have lived in New York for over 40 years after growing up in Chicago and California. I have always had an interest in mental health and emotional concerns, and I also pursued MBA training to learn about Organizational Behavior, Corporate Decision Making, and Group Dynamics. My interests include working with clients on multi-cultural issues and change management. I also have extensive hands-on experience addressing intra-hospital organizational issues. I have experience helping people coping with a wide variety of medical problems and understand the challenges of living with acute and chronic illnesses. My language skills include fluency in German and conversational French.
I have expert training in both psychotherapy and medication management and can provide either or both depending on need. I am board certified in Psychiatry and Psychosomatic Medicine. Some examples of the reasons why people see me are:
Treatment of depression and mood symptoms
OCD, panic attacks, and other anxiety symptoms
Psychotic or manic symptoms
Psychiatric care of chronic and complex medical conditions
Gay Men’s Mental Health
HIV Psychiatry
