Summary

• As the Founder and Medical Director of CLEAR Ketamine + Psychiatry, I am dedicated to delivering innovative, holistic, and expert mental health care. My practice, located in Westlake Village, CA, offers cutting-edge treatments for depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other mental health conditions, with a focus on ketamine therapy and psychiatric medication management. At CLEAR Ketamine + Psychiatry, we prioritize a personalized approach to care, ensuring that each patient receives individualized attention in a supportive and healing environment.
  
  Our practice is committed to offering a powerful alternative for those who have not found relief with traditional treatments. Ketamine therapy provides rapid relief and new perspectives, offering hope where other methods may have failed. As a board-certified psychiatrist with extensive experience, I guide each treatment with a focus on safety and professionalism, adhering to evidence-based protocols for the best possible outcomes.
  
  We take a holistic view, ensuring that each patient is seen as a whole person, not just a diagnosis. I prioritize meaningful connections, fostering an environment where patients feel heard and understood. Our approach integrates the bio-psycho-social-spiritual model to promote comprehensive well-being and personal growth. Each treatment is tailored to the individual’s needs, from preparation to post-treatment integration, providing ongoing support throughout their journey.
  
  I completed my medical education at Columbia University and my psychiatric residency at USC. Since then, I’ve specialized in interventional psychiatric treatments like TMS and ketamine therapy, continually seeking to offer innovative solutions for patients who have struggled with more conventional approaches. My practice is built on the principles of integrity, ethical care, and a commitment to providing the highest standards of treatment in this evolving field.
