Mental health recovery plans built on understanding, not just prescribing.
Living with mental health challenges can be exhausting—especially when treatment feels rushed, medications don’t work, and providers seem more focused on a checklist of symptoms than they are on you.
As a board-certified psychiatrist in San Diego, I offer psychiatric services designed to treat the whole you, not just your condition.
If you’re looking for a supportive environment, a holistic approach, and personalized treatment plans that transcend conventional care, you’re in the right place.
Lasting wellness begins with active listening. Our initial session is typically two hours long, allowing us to explore not only what’s happening but also why it’s happening. Together, we’ll build a psychiatric treatment plan that considers the full context of your life—not just the symptoms.
You’re not here to be told what to do. You’re here to recover through collaborative care. We make psychiatric service treatment decisions together. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, or trauma, we will find a solution together.
I am qualified to prescribe medications and often do. But I also consider the bigger picture: your background, lifestyle, and relationship dynamics. This deeper understanding helps uncover the root causes of your distress, allowing us to pursue psychiatric services aligned with you, not a mental health handbook.
Want to move beyond conventional psychiatric treatment in San Diego? Need a second opinion? I can support you in your recovery journey.
Whether you are an adult, teen, or parent seeking support for your child, my psychiatric assessments offer a safe space to explore your history, symptoms, lifestyle, and any other domains that may inform how we approach your care path.
Healing looks different for everyone. Together, we’ll consider your recovery options, whether it's medication, talk therapy, interventional strategies like Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), or a combination of approaches. My goal is always to design a treatment plan that fits you.
Medication can be a powerful tool, but it’s certainly not the only one. I take a thoughtful approach to prescribing. From the start, we’ll discuss if and when you should taper or stop taking medication, so you’re never left on autopilot.
Many of the patterns surrounding our emotions, self-perception, and relationship dynamics often lie beneath the surface. Together, we’ll explore these unconscious influences so you can move beyond those no longer serving you.
Psychiatric services are most effective when they are personalized and integrated. That means considering the whole story—your history, lifestyle, diet, sleep patterns, and other factors that may be contributing to your mental health challenges.
I founded my practice because I saw a need for a different kind of psychiatry—one that honors complexity, invites curiosity, and blends science with genuine care and connection.
When you partner with me, you can expect custom care plans that empower you to take control and become the fullest version of yourself that you can be.
My office is located inside the Hacienda Del Mar, a serene, Spanish-style courtyard building in Del Mar. It’s not just a place for appointments—it’s a safe and inviting space where patients feel at ease the moment they arrive. You’ll love the courtyard, the soft ocean air, and a live projected wildlife feed that quietly reminds us all to stay resilient and mindful, no matter what comes our way.
