I work with adults 18 and older who feel anxious, depressed, distracted, emotionally overwhelmed, burned out, or unlike themselves. They may be struggling with ADHD, mood changes, stress, sleep disruption, low motivation, or difficulty functioning in daily life. Many are looking for mental health care that feels thoughtful, thorough, and individualized.

I specialize in treating adults with depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, insomnia, OCD, and treatment-resistant mood disorders. My advanced psychiatric training was completed through Monmouth University and Wilkes University, where I focused on Evidence-based psychiatric care.
I believe that effective treatment starts with understanding the whole person not just the diagnosis. Together, we'll explore the biological, psychological, and lifestyle factors contributing to your symptoms and develop a personalized treatment plan that fits your goals. My approach combines thoughtful medication management with practical therapeutic strategies that you can apply in everyday life.
For individuals whose depression has not improved after trying multiple antidepressants, I also evaluate and provide treatment options such as Spravato (esketamine) when clinically appropriate. My focus is always on finding the safest, most effective treatment based on your unique needs.

I strive to create a supportive, judgment-free environment where you feel heard, respected, and actively involved in your treatment decisions.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Arlington, TX
Finding psychiatrists in Arlington starts with knowing which type of mental health care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists focus on talk therapy. People often search for psychiatric care for anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, and medication management. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, so review each bio for listed specialties, clinical focus, and the kind of care they provide.
In a mid-size city like Arlington, your options may include offices near central neighborhoods, nearby communities, and virtual appointments across Texas. Medication management appointments are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, so schedule, availability, and appointment format can make a practical difference. Some people work with both an Arlington therapist and a prescriber, while others start with one type of care. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Psychiatric care in Arlington can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower out-of-pocket costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients, may be in-network with your plan, and offer upfront cost estimates after you enter your insurance details. You can browse providers, 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.
