Integrative Psychiatry Services in Rochester, NY
As a board-certified psychiatrist with over 30 years of clinical experience, I founded this practice to bridge conventional psychiatry with evidence-based holistic modalities. My approach focuses on identifying root causes of mental health issues through comprehensive evaluations of physical, emotional, and spiritual factors. Since integrating holistic methods into my practice in 2013, I have prioritized personalized care, combining traditional diagnostic tools with nutritional guidance, lab testing, and complementary therapies.My training at the University of Utah Medical School and residency at Strong Memorial Hospital, coupled with ongoing education in integrative medicine, informs my commitment to patient-centered healing. I maintain a small practice to ensure dedicated time for each patient and collaborate with specialists in acupuncture, naturopathy, and nutrition when needed. My practice philosophy emphasizes safety, scientific rigor, and empowering patients to achieve wellness through informed choices.
