Get In Touch

  • Hi! I’ve been a psychiatrist since 2003 and board certified since 2005. I have extensive experience with community mental health as well as various forms of psychotherapy and teaching.

    The son of a psychologist, I grew up in North Carolina. I went to college at Wesleyan University, medical school at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and residency at the University Hospitals and Clinics in Madison Wisconsin where I was a chief resident.

    I had experience in neurobiology and psychology research early in my career and then became more interested in clinical practice and teaching. I value sustainability, accessibility, empowerment and results and as such I have an interest in educational groups that teach tools to feel and stay well in mind, body and spirit.

    Other interests include music, dance, cultures, and exploring the world.

    *Unfortunately these days I do not have early, late or weekend appointments.

  • INSURANCE:

    • I am not an In-Network provider with any insurance plans. I accept payment at the time of the visit, *but can submit claims electronically so that you can be reimbursed partially if you have a PPO.

    RATES:

    • These depend on the service offered but as an example, typical psychotherapy and biological consultation sessions are $450 per 50 minute “hour” and prorated for longer sessions. There are separate rates for shorter consultations and ketamine sessions as well as one-time consultations.

    SLIDING SCALE:

    • Occasionally I have openings in sliding scale spots for people in need, though these are almost always full.

    CANCELATION POLICY:

    • I require 24 hours advanced notice to cancel appointments (though prefer more lead time if possible). If appointments are not canceled in this 24-hour time frame, I will have to charge you the full fee for your session.

    FORMS OF PAYMENT ACCEPTED:

    • Cash or Venmo is preferred, though I also accept credit cards, checks, Zelle and PayPal.
