Practice Background:
I have been in private practice since 1995, initially in San Francisco then moving
down to the Peninsula in 2000.
I am currently on faculty at UC San Francisco as Volunteer Assistant Clinical Professor in the Department
of Psychiatry.
I completed
a year-long fellowship in Integrative Psychiatry in 2021-22 through the Integrative Psychiatry Institute and am a Certified
Integrative Psychiatric Provider.
After graduating
from the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in 1991 and completing Psychiatry Residency at UCSF in 1995, I worked part-time as an attending psychiatrist on the inpatient
psychiatric unit at UCSF from 1995-1998, during which time I served on the faculty at UCSF as assistant clinical professor.
In addition, during that time I was one of the volunteer faculty at the Women's Mood and Hormone Clinic at UCSF. I have
worked in other settings as well such as Emergency Psychiatric Services, Walden House Substance Abuse facilities, and UCSF
Hastings Law School Student Health.
Around 1998 I decided to focus on my private practice, which was always my first
love.
