I completed medical school at USF in Tampa, Florida and I completed psychiatry residency at GW in Washington, DC. I specialize in depression and anxiety.
I seek to provide culturally affirming, holistic care that integrates the mind, body, and spirit. As a multicultural, neurodivergent psychiatrist and daughter of immigrants raised in Chicago, I bring both clinical training and lived experience to our work together. My own journey through burnout and the process of learning to slow down and listen to what my body needed has also shaped the care I provide. It has grounded me in genuine curiosity, humility, and a deep respect for the wisdom you already carry.
I am commited to providing compassionate patient-centered mental health care

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Joliet, IL
Finding psychiatrists in Joliet starts with understanding what type of mental health care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists provide talk therapy. Medication management may be used for concerns such as anxiety, depression, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, bipolar disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. As you compare options, look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties, clinical background, and approach match the type of support you’re seeking.
In a smaller city like Joliet, local appointment options may be more limited than in larger Illinois markets, so virtual psychiatry can help expand your search. Psychiatric appointments for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, which makes availability, appointment format, and scheduling fit important to consider. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Reading psychiatrist bios before booking can help you see what each clinician treats, how they structure visits, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Psychiatric care in Joliet can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated price before you book. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients and can verify whether they take your plan. You can compare virtual and in-person options, review bios, 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.
