My work honors both science and story. I believe psychiatric care should respect your culture, your legacy, and the responsibilities you carry, not reduce you to a diagnosis.
In our work together, we move beyond symptom management to restore clarity, steadiness, and self-trust, through precise medication management, narrative reflection, and culturally grounded practice.
