“I have always been passionate about building teens’ self-esteem and empowering them to work through challenges in their lives. Within adolescent medicine, my main clinical interest has always been mental health. In my clinical experience, I have helped teens deal with depression, self-harm, suicidality, anxiety disorders, and eating disorders. I have also been active in clinical research on adolescent depression.”
