After attending Grant Medical College in India, I entered Psychiatry training at Penn State Milton S Hershey Medical Center, Hershey, PA. During Residency training I attended the Psychoanalytic Center of Philadelphia Psychotherapy and Fellowship Program to expand and grow my psychotherapeutic skills. After my training, I stayed on as Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at Penn State Hershey Medical Center where I was actively involved in teaching and supervising residents and medical students. I completed a 3-year Core training in Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP) and am a IEDTA Certified ISTDP Therapist. I was also an Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at The Baylor College of Medicine and a Staff Psychiatrist at the Outpatient Assessment Program at The Menninger Clinic in Houston. Being a Psychiatrist allows me to integrate Psychotherapy and Medications (if needed) for the maximum benefit of my clients.

Aside from my work, I enjoy meditating, listening to music, and spending time with my family.
