I am a board-certified psychiatrist and an assistant professor in the psychiatry department at Johns Hopkins. I have over 40 years of experience treating adults with mood disorders (including depression and bipolar disorder), anxiety disorders (including generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, OCD, and phobias), post-partum depression, PMS (premenstrual dysphoric disorder), and adult ADHD. I also specialize in geriatric psychiatry. While I am an expert in medication treatment, I also provide supportive and problem-solving psychotherapy, in order to help people solve problems that are contributing to their symptoms. I consider myself a holistic doctor. I encourage mindful techniques, exercise, good nutrition, and a few herbal/over-the-counter compounds that have been studied and found to be safe and effective also. I do not treat addiction or eating disorders.
