Psychiatrist and Psychotherapist
I am a board-certified private practice psychiatrist based in Center City, Philadelphia. In my practice, I offer a variety of different treatment modalities including individual psychotherapy and medications. I have particular expertise in psychodynamic therapy and psychoanalysis.
Following medical school, I completed a four year residency program and one year fellowship in psychiatry at the Hospital of University of Pennsylvania. During my training, I was recognized with the Outstanding Senior Resident Award and the Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Award, and was selected as an American Psychoanalytic Association Fellow.
I am currently in advanced training in psychoanalysis at the Psychoanalytic Center of Philadelphia. Beyond my clinical work, I am committed to psychiatric and psychoanalytic education. As a Clinical Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania, I teach and provide psychotherapy supervision to psychiatry residents. I also serve as a course instructor at the Psychoanalytic Center of Philadelphia.
