Summary

• Psychiatry stands as my unequivocal vocation, and I ardently embrace the profound commitment to my field. Over the course of nearly three decades, I have cultivated a thriving private practice dedicated to delivering comprehensive mental health care to individuals aged 18 and above. In addition to this, I proudly serve as the Medical Director for Back to Basics, a rehabilitation facility specializing in the treatment of substance abuse in Flagstaff, AZ, and for the Mark Allen Foundation, a facility dedicated to the care of individuals grappling with severe mental illnesses.
  
  Within my practice, I employ a multifaceted approach, integrating talk therapy, pharmacological interventions, educational initiatives, and pragmatic counsel to address the diverse needs of my patients. Furthermore, I leverage advanced methodologies such as genetic testing and personalized treatment plans, while also facilitating referrals to innovative treatments such as Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) when deemed necessary.
  
  My professional ethos revolves around instilling compassion and fostering a sense of hope in the treatment process, with the overarching goal of empowering individuals to lead their most fulfilling lives.
