Message from our Medical Director
I believe in providing compassionate, evidence-based care that respects the dignity and individuality of every patient. My approach integrates biological, psychological, and social perspectives to treat the whole person, not just the symptoms.
I prioritize building therapeutic relationship grounded in trust, empathy, and open communication, empowering patients to take an active role in their mental health journey. I am committed to lifelong learning, ethical practice, and cultural humility, recognizing the importance of advocacy, stigma reduction, and equitable access to care.
Above all, I approach my role with respect for the vulnerability of those I serve and a deep responsibility to do no harm.
