Psychiatric medication provider in Chicago

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in your own thoughts, constantly trying to keep up, or wondering why everyday tasks seem harder than they should, you’re not alone. I specialize in working with adults navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, and 
perinatal mood disorders. Many of my clients are professionals, parents, and high achievers who appear to have it all together but feel exhausted, anxious, scattered, or emotionally drained behind the scenes. Together, we’ll create a practical plan that helps you feel more in control and better equipped to manage daily life.

My approach is collaborative, down-to-earth, and evidence-based. I combine medication management with education and practical strategies that fit your lifestyle. I believe treatment should feel like a conversation, not a lecture, and that you should feel informed, supported, and involved every step of the way.

I also hold a Perinatal Mental Health Certification (PMH-C) through Postpartum Support International and support individuals through pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood. Whether you’re facing a major life transition or long-standing mental health concerns, my goal is to help you build confidence, clarity, and lasting stability
