I am a licensed psychiatrist practicing in California for over 25 years. The majority of my professional experience has been in adult male correctional institutions (prisons, jails, state hospitals), with extensive experience in crisis and acute hospital settings. I specialize in the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of serious mental illnesses including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, antisocial and borderline personality disorders, PTSD, and major depression. I have considerable knowledge of evidence-based medical practices for the symptoms and behaviors of these disorders, including psychosis, mania, depression, impulsive violence, suicidal behavior, and chronic self-injury. I excel at comprehensive legal and health record review, research, and investigation. I have a substantial history of well-documented report writing and expert witness testimony.
