I’ve spent the past several years caring for adults with a broad spectrum of mental health needs—major depression, generalized anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and co occurring substance use challenges such as alcohol or cannabis. Whether in outpatient clinics, residential treatment programs, or hospital units, I always begin by listening to their whole story: symptoms, your goals, and the personal, cultural, and life situational factors that shape how they experience distress. From that foundation, I design a personalized plan that may include medication, evidence based psychotherapies, and integrative/lifestyle strategies like sleep hygiene, nutrition, and stress reduction, all selected from the latest research.
I trained in Medicine at Universidad del Rosario in Colombia, completed a General Adult Psychiatry Residency and an Addiction Psychiatry Fellowship at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon, NH and earned an MPH in Health Economics from Harvard University. I have worked and lived in different countries. I bring that multicultural perspective into every session, honoring each patient’s cultural background while staying firmly rooted in evidence based medicine. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where my patients are heard, respected, and empowered to take an active role in your recovery, ultimately achieving lasting well being.

The Philosophy Behind the Practice
Four core principles guide every patient interaction, every diagnosis, and every treatment decision made at this practice.
The Patient at the Center
Your goals, values, and daily realities shape the treatment plan — not the other way around. I see the whole person, not just a set of symptoms. Every recommendation is discussed openly with you before any decision is made.
Science as the Foundation
All recommendations are grounded in the best available evidence, including clinical guidelines and peer-reviewed literature. I blend that knowledge with my own training experience to ensure you receive care that has been proven to work.
Cultural Humility
I have worked with patients from across the world. I understand that culture profoundly shapes how distress is experienced and expressed — and I honor that in every encounter, with genuine curiosity and respect.
Beyond the Prescription Pad
Beyond biological psychiatry and medication management, I also integrate psychotherapy, mindfulness, exercise, nutrition, and natural remedies when appropriate — because healing is more than a chemical equation.
