Orchid
Psychiatry

I am a board-certified psychiatrist, and for more than 12 years, I have had the privilege of caring for individuals and families across Missouri. My journey in mental health began with a psychiatry residency in India, followed by residency training and a fellowship in Geriatric Psychiatry at Saint Louis University. These experiences shaped not only my clinical expertise but also my deep appreciation for the diverse stories and backgrounds my patients bring to our work together.
I treat a broad range of mental health concerns, including mood and anxiety disorders, dementia, obsessive–compulsive disorder, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, bipolar disorder, psychotic disorders, substance-use, and challenges related to self-harm. No matter the diagnosis, my priority is to truly understand each person’s perspective and treat them with honor and dignity.
I combine evidence-based care with a culturally sensitive approach, offering both therapy and medication management when appropriate. My goal is always to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where patients feel heard, respected, and empowered in their path toward healing and well-being.
