Welcome to
Effective Psychiatry

Welcome to my psychiatry practice serving the metro Atlanta area, located in Peachtree Corners. This is a safe and inclusive space for your treatment, regardless of race, religion, sexuality, ideology or lifestyle. 


As a board-certified psychiatrist, I have spent most of my post-training years treating adults in the outpatient setting. I work with adults who have a range of difficulties including depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, attention problems, grief, relationship issues, and work problems. Women’s mental health and perinatal psychiatry are areas of expertise.

It is my mission to provide individualized and patient-centered care. At Effective Psychiatry, I offer care that integrates psychotherapy and medication (when necessary). Research studies have shown that the combination of psychotherapy with medication for the treatment of certain mental health conditions has superior outcomes when compared to either treatment method alone. As the research shows, I have observed that my patients who are engaged in combination treatment report more meaningful improvements in their functioning and quality of life. Most psychiatrists practiced combination treatment for many decades, however there has been a significant decline in the number of psychiatrists offering psychotherapy in recent years. This has unfortunately led to patients having to split treatment—having a psychotherapist in addition to their psychiatrist. At my practice, you will receive the benefits of both treatment modalities in one place.

My approach is warm, empathic and collaborative.  I believe that you deserve dignity and kindness in your mental health care. I treat my patients as a whole person, taking into consideration the biological, psychological and social contributors to their problems.
