Find Peace of Mind with A Balanced Mind Psychiatry
I understand that seeking help for your mental health can be difficult. I will treat you with compassion. I started working in mental health as a rape crisis line volunteer. I became a psychiatric professional in 2017. My background is in hospital, in-patient drug and alcohol recovery and outpatient clinics. My patients have had a full spectrum of mental health disorders from anxiety and depression to PTSD, ADHD to bipolar disorder and more.
I specialize in ADHD diagnosis, medication treatment, and executive function coaching.
I offer complete mental health care to relieve anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and more. My treatment includes medication management, and if you do not have a therapist, I offer psychotherapy.
All therapy patients have to be medication management patients--you get one professional for psychiatry and psychotherapy. I will work with you solely on medication management if you wish and if we are doing EMDR therapy, I will work with you solely with EMDR therapy if you wish. If a therapist refers you, I will work with you solely on medication management so you can remain with your therapist.
I work with patients throughout New York State, all of Maryland, and in all of Delaware. The majority of sessions are virtual.

EMDR Therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy)
is a therapy that helps you to physically process your trauma memories so they no longer shape the way you think and act.
A trauma is any negative event that has had a lasting impact on your perception of life and the choices you make in your life. EMDR Therapy helps you to be free of the impact of trauma on your mental health.
With EMDR, you think of the memory briefly then use bilateral movement (usually eye movements) to reduce the vividness and emotion associated with the trauma memory.
