A different kind of practice

An independent international psychiatric practice — for anyone navigating life across cultures and borders.

Close follow-up

Careful evaluation and genuine continuity. The visit is where the work happens.

Specialty depth

UCSF-trained expertise across adult, child, and complex presentations — including OCD, treatment-resistant conditions, and dementia.

Cross-cultural fluency

Deeply attuned to Third Culture Kid (TCK) and expat experience, questions of identity in all their complexity, bilingual care pathways, and the Vietnamese family context.
