Founder and Medical Director
Brain Health Solution
Adult and Forensic Psychiatrist
Licensed in MD and VA

I am deeply committed to provide excellent care that is evidence based, compassionate and respectful.

I am committed to making psychiatric care accessible and convenient for everyone. I understand that working on improving mental health can be challenging and anxiety-provoking for many.

​

Specifically, I enjoy working with healthcare professionals who often experience difficulty seeking out care in a timely manner. As a physician myself, I understand the challenges faced by my colleagues.

​

I strive to create a safe and comfortable space for open discussions and personalized treatment plans. My goal is to be a compassionate and empathetic listener, exploring additional medical causes of your symptoms and understanding you as an individual. 

​

My approach to treatment is conservative, collaborative and integrative. Treatment options may include several of the following:

​

• Psychotherapy

• Medication Management

• Identifying and addressing underlying psycho-social issues

• Changes to diet and exercise

• Sleep hygiene

• Close collaboration with your current therapist

​

I am fluent in English, Hindi, Punjabi and Marathi. 

I am a board-certified physician and have been in clinical practice for over a decade. After completing six years of medical school training, I completed 4 years of General Psychiatry Residency Training at University of Kansas School of Medicine followed by additional subspecialty fellowship training in Forensic Psychiatry from Georgetown University Medical Center.

I am an active member of Maryland Psychiatric Society (MPS), a fellow of American Psychiatry Association (FAPA) and a member of the American Association of Psychiatry and Law (AAPL). 

​

I am well-published and cited in several research and clinical journals. I have been interviewed by several media outlets on various mental health topics.

​

I am licensed to provide services in Maryland and Virginia.

I have worked in different research and clinical roles across many esteemed institutions including Duke University and Sheppard Pratt Health Systems. More recently, I worked as the Service Chief at the Mood Disorders Day Program at Sheppard Pratt, as well as on the acute inpatient psychiatric units. I am well versed in complex psychopharmacology, psychotherapy as well administration of neuromodulation treatments including electro-convulsive therapy (ECT). Additionally, my role as the Physician Advisor for multiple clinical research trials has helped me stay abreast of the latest advancements in psychiatric care.
