Additional Contact
phone: (703) 525-5111As a Board Certified psychiatrist and a psychoanalyst, I am a medical doctor with specialized experience in understanding the brain and its psychological counterpart, the mind. With more than 30 years of experience treating thousands of patients, I am in a unique position to understand and help both the chemical imbalances which afflict some patients, as well as the troubling feelings, conflicts, and losses which burden others.
I will provide clear explanations of causes, manifestations, and treatments for psychological problems that diminish the quality of people's lives.
Taking the first step toward getting help is often the most difficult
