I have 30 years of experience, and specialize in the field of child and adolescent psychiatry, with specific knowledge in the areas of child custody, wrongful death and medical malpractice, and public psychiatric delivery of mental health services. I have published on such topics as inpatient child and adolescent psychiatry, intensive home-based treatment, and eating disorders. I have testified on child custody, medical malpractice in child psychiatry, and delivery of mental health. I am interested in developing innovative clinical programs for treatment of children and families living in significant psychosocial adversity. These clinical programs are theory based and have robust quality improvement components
