Supportive
My treatment approach focuses on medication management and supportive therapy to help patients achieve stability and well-being. I develop individualized pharmacological plans, closely monitoring medication effectiveness and side effects to ensure optimal outcomes. Supportive therapy provides a safe space for patients to process emotions, build resilience, and develop coping strategies. When more intensive psychotherapy is needed, I refer patients to trusted specialists while maintaining collaborative care to ensure continuity and holistic support. My goal is to provide compassionate, patient-centered care that promotes long-term recovery and improved quality of life.

Very professional, but overall she hears you. She listens and she's not there just to only help with medication. She truly hears you and wants to get to know you better to understand how to help in every way that she can. I can't wait to work with her further.
