In starting our work together, you can expect to undergo a comprehensive evaluation so that I can assess your unique and individual requirements. This consists of getting to know you over several sessions. Your stressors, family situation, childhood influences, cultural circumstances, and biological contributors must all be considered. Based on our consultation, I will suggest a suitable psychotherapeutic approach for us to work with. As you might expect, being a psychiatrist, I may prescribe medication when indicated or to optimize your treatment.

There are many types of psychotherapy. Psychoanalysis is a form of psychotherapy that requires frequent visits and is designed for a thorough exploration and correction of maladaptive personality traits. Psychodynamic psychotherapy is similar to psychoanalysis but is less intensive in frequency of sessions.
