Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, I completed my medical training at NYIT College of Osteopathic Medicine. As an osteopathic physician, I practice with a holistic lens—integrating mind, body, and spirit—and value personalized, relational, and evidence-based care. I completed my psychiatric residency at St. Elizabeths Hospital in Washington, DC, a forensic psychiatric hospital often referred to as “the ICU of psychiatry” for its work with individuals facing chronic, treatment-resistant conditions. After residency, I spent three years in outpatient psychiatry within large corporate settings and ultimately transitioned to an eating-disorder hospital, seeking work aligned with depth, integrity, and true patient-centered care.
As a first-generation Ukrainian Jew and a native Russian speaker, I hold lived experience with immigration, intergenerational trauma, and cultural stigma surrounding mental health. This background informs my compassion, humility, and commitment to meeting patients where they are.
I am committed and dedicated to serving my patients and community. I am an advocate for mental health, and I integrate innovative treatments in my practice.

The past is a good place to visit but certainly not a place to stay
As a dual-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner, I provide comprehensive psychiatric care grounded in evidence-based medicine while recognizing that healing often requires looking beyond symptoms alone. Together, we will explore not only what you are experiencing, but why. My goal is to help you find relief, and create meaningful, lasting change. I work with individuals facing complex concerns, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and substance use disorders. When appropriate, treatment may include medication management as part of a holistic approach to care. I believe lasting mental wellness is nurtured through the connection of mind, body, and daily life, incorporating tools such as mindfulness, meditation, affirmations, stress management, and other wellness practices.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Wheat Ridge
Searching for psychiatrists in Wheat Ridge starts with knowing which type of care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage psychiatric care over time. Therapists focus on talk therapy and skills-based support. Both can be useful entry points, depending on what you’re looking for. If you want support for anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, look for a psychiatrist whose profile lists experience with your specific concern.
Wheat Ridge has a smaller local provider market than nearby Denver, so virtual appointments can expand your options while keeping care convenient. Psychiatric appointments for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, so schedule fit matters. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Before booking, read psychiatrist bios to understand their clinical focus, appointment style, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Psychiatric care in Wheat Ridge can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who take your plan, are accepting new patients, and offer upfront cost estimates after your insurance is verified. You can compare profiles, review availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
