Psychiatrist

I received my medical education in Paris, France.

I arrived in the US in 1982 and completed my psychiatric residency at Temple University Hospital, in Philadelphia in 1989.

IN 2010, I completed a forensic psychiatry fellowship in Portland, Oregon.

I have worked as a staff psychiatrist within the Maryland state mental health system for 23 years.

I am working with patients suffering from general mental illness and patients suffering from substance abuse.

I have worked with substance abuse clients since 1992 when I created a treatment program at Crownsville Hospital, in Crownsville. More recently I have been working with clients receiving buprenorphine (Suboxone) for the treatment of opioid use disorder.

If you're carrying anxiety that won't quiet down, grief that feels impossible to move through, or a weight that makes everyday life feel harder than it should, you're in the right place. I work with adults and people across all stages of life who are ready to feel more like themselves again. My approach is grounded in warmth and a deep belief that you are the expert on your own life.

As we hit the halfway mark of the year this July, it is time to stop putting your mental health on the back burner. This holiday is the perfect moment to take action. Don’t wait for the new week to start: take control of your mental health and reclaim your peace of mind before the weekend ends by booking an intake appointment for this upcoming week. Whether you are facing a high-conflict divorce, a personal transition, or the crushing weight of burnout, it is exhausting to hold the line at work when your personal life feels like a crisis zone. You are used to managing the storm, but you don't have to manage this alone.
