I believe therapy is a collaborative effort between the client and therapist. As a therapist | utilize evidence-based models such as cognitive behavioral therapy, solution focused therapy, and the biology of human behavior. The focus of therapy is to assist clients in attaining goals through a step-by-step process so they can gradually transition into a healthy lifestyle. Explaining how behavioral symptoms are related to brain biology makes patients understand themselves and the people around them.
Being and Neuroscientist and Physician Scientist makes me understand how the brain works and as a therapist the understanding of behavioral issues is truly a winning combination to provide patient understanding of their issues.

1) short introduction about me and how we can help 2) Careful review of why the patient decided to start therapy 3) Careful and comprehensive review of their symptoms 4) Treatment planning and recommendations, and making next appointment for care continuity

I believe therapy is a collaborative effort between the client and therapist. As a therapist | utilize evidence-based models such as cognitive behavioral therapy, solution focused therapy, and the biology of human behavior. The focus of therapy is to assist clients in attaining goals through a step-by-step process so they can gradually transition into a healthy lifestyle. I have a master's degree in clinical psychology with a specialty in family therapy, and a master's degree in biology with a specialty in neurobiology and a Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree. With 27 years of experience as a family therapist, I found very good success explaining to clients the biology of behavior in simplistic ways. Explaining brain biology helps clients understand the changes that are needed to modify behaviors to empower them to maximize their potential. I have extensive experience treating depression, anxiety, adjustment, self-esteem, work related issues, family discord and relationship conflict. I have worked with clients of all ages. I look forward to meeting you.
