PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING, thank you. I am a board-certified Psychiatrist (medical doctor) providing virtual care throughout NY and PA. I taper medications. This means my patients want to reduce or stop psychiatric medications, and I guide them through that process at a safe pace.

My understanding of suffering and hope is rooted in a Christ-centered faith, which shapes the wisdom and care I bring to my work.
