I strongly believe in a holistic approach towards my patients, which includes collaboration with not only with the family but with the primary care physician as well. I feel that mental health is strongly related to on going medical issues and requires immense attention to improve the health of my patients. I believe in maintaining strong rapport with my patients to cultivate positive behavioral changes and motivate them to lead a better life.
