About Me

Welcome to my Web page.

Biography

I am a native Californian. I have an undergraduate degree in holistic health and have always had an interest in psychosomatics: the interplay of body, mind, and spirit. I ask myself how I can be of service to others, whether they are Kaiser Permanente members or colleagues. I do inpatient and emergency psychiatric consultation at the Los Angeles Medical Center. I see members who are in crisis or having problems secondary to their illness.

About my practice

I have always had an interest in the subject of physician health. I chair the Physician Well-Being Committee, which places a special emphasis on a physicians' work-life balance. I try to follow these principles of balance in my own life.

How I thrive

I like to walk, most often with my dogs. I enjoy cooking, especially inventing salads or roasting and grilling vegetables.
