I am a board certified general adult psychiatrist with 30 years of experience. I co-founded PsychServ Medical Corporation with Nathan J. Zilberg, Ph. D., where I practice in Corte Madera, California. The majority of my practice is direct patient care. My approach to care is collaborative, individualized, and pragmatic. We begin with a comprehensive consultation.
I take a thorough history that allows me to begin to understand how you are put together as a person: how your personality is organized, your coping style, your patterns in interpersonal relationships, your "hard-wired" biological makeup, and what factors have influenced your resilience, adaptability, strengths, and limitations. I share these hypotheses with you.
We then begin a process of understanding the most likely causes of your distress/problems and we collaboratively decide upon a treatment approach to improve the quality of your life. Depending on the outcome of our consultation, I decide upon the most appropriate diagnosis(es).

Services
I offer an integrated model of psychiatric and psychological treatment.
However, if you have an established relationship with a therapist and you are seeking treatment with me for medication management only, I am very open to discussing with you a plan for collaborative communication with your therapist to coordinate your care.
Frequency and composition of sessions are determined by diagnosis and treatment planning, which are need-based and part of the ongoing process of your care.
For some problems, a relatively brief treatment is all that is needed.
