She has expertise in diagnostic assessment, Emergency Psychiatry, and acute crisis management and counseling.  Her  practice also encompasses a focus on women’s health care and the unique challenges that women face throughout the lifespan.  She has expertise in Reproductive Psychiatry and treats women before, during, and after pregnancy who may suffer from perinatal and postpartum related disorders.  She is currently an associate clinical professor on faculty at NYU School of Medicine where she teaches and supervises physicians in training.  In addition, she is  working part-time with the NYU/ Bellevue World Trade Center Medical Monitoring and Treatment Program which offers treatment to 9/11 first responders.
