Yale University — I am a general adult psychiatrist with over 20 years of experience, having completed my residency training and forensic fellowship at Yale. During my time at Yale, I had the privilege of serving as program chief resident, and I continue to maintain an academic affiliation with Yale and the psychiatric community in New Haven, Connecticut.
