Compassionate, Comprehensive, Collaborative
Forensic Services
I am a Yale trained, Board-certified Forensic Psychiatrist who offers forensic consultations and expert witness services in Connecticut and Massachusetts.
I have performed evaluations in criminal and civil proceedings and have appeared as an expert witness in state courts in Colorado, Illinois and Connecticut. Previously, I was Medical Director for The Whiting Forensic Service (Maximum Security) at Connecticut Valley Hospital, overseeing six units that housed insanity acquittees and defendants who were deemed not competent to stand trial.
I encourage attorneys and courts to call me to discuss cases in which my services might be helpful.
