I believe all children and adolescents struggling with their mental health deserve compassionate, evidence-based and individualized treatment. Instead of specializing in a specific population or focusing on a single treatment modality, I believe in helping to fill gaps in care by operating as a more generalist practitioner, offering few exclusionary criteria. I strive to work alongside patients and families in identifying personalized treatment plans, incorporating treatment modalities that fit them best to help them achieve their treatment goals.
