Specializing in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. Residency training at Cornell and Columbia Universities in New York City. I practiced in New York then shifted to the vast Hollywood entertainment world but never abandoned my specialty skills as a Child Psychiatrist. I believe that there is an inherent therapeutic value in all entertainment something I call the Coefficient of Entertainment (COE) and with today's technology you can assign a value to that COE. Some entertainment has better therapeutic value than another. Amazing right! And some Hollywood brands have better value than non-brands. I also believe that your movements are intimately linked to emotions and cognition and being in control of your body (domains) is a way to control and master emotions and cognition. "Introjection or mirroring both consciously and unconsciously are two tools we use in managing our body movements even balancing your baseline of anxiety&depression symptoms so managing your life better"....Dr MOOVES

My career goals have been focused on the LGBTQ population working both as president of AGLP: The Association of LGBTQ Psychiatrists and Director of Psychiatry at Callen-Lorde Community Health Center, one of the largest LGBTQ Medical Centers in the world. I provide psychotherapy and/or medication management. My training is largely psychodynamic but I use behavioral therapies when needed.

The stigma around mental health treatment can make initiation intimidating, because of this I offer a non judgmental and confidential space to get the treatment you need. As well I focus on the individual and not the diagnosis. Medication management cannot be performed properly if people are all treated the same. Services include medication management/review ,medical marijuana, and first time consultations to discuss a treatment plan. ADHD diagnosis/management is also provided. ADHD is often overlooked or under treated. My goal is to provide a personal experience where we work together for optimal care ensuring all needs are met. My style is warm, encouraging, and empowering collaborating with clients while tailoring my approach to each person’s unique needs. Together we will develop a comprehensive treatment plan that may involve medications psychotherapy or both. I firmly believe that while difficult circumstances present a challenge, it is never too late to choose to move forward.
