Board certified general adult and sports Psychiatrist and owner of a virtual mental health company at shrinkMD
I am a Board Certified Psychiatrist, Duke MBA graduate, and founder of shrinkMD, a national virtual mental health platform dedicated to providing accessible, high quality psychiatric care to adults. With over a decade of clinical experience, I’ve treated individuals from all walks of life ranging from high performing executives and elite athletes to students and underserved populations. My approach blends deep clinical insight with the strategic thinking of a healthcare entrepreneur, giving me a unique lens into the future of mental health care. My background in sports psychiatry includes consulting roles with professional organizations like the NFL and Jacksonville Jaguars, where I’ve supported athletes in navigating performance pressure, identity challenges, and psychological recovery from injury. These experiences have sharpened my focus on mental resilience, optimization, and the intricate connection between mind and body. I'm widely recognized for my work in urgent care psychiatry, helping patients find rapid, effective relief from acute mental health challenges without the long wait times that plague traditional systems. At shrinkMD, I lead a care model rooted in the biopsychosocial and spiritual framework, ensuring that every individual is treated as more than a diagnosis honoring their unique history, strengths, and personal bandwidth. Beyond clinical care, I’m deeply committed to addressing the systemic barriers that keep people from accessing mental health services whether that’s a lack of providers, financial constraints, stigma, or outdated delivery models. My work sits at the intersection of mental health innovation, digital health, and patient centered care, and I’m passionate about changing the narrative around what psychiatric support can look like in today’s world. I am a trusted voice on a range of topics, including telepsychiatry, burnout, workplace mental health, healthcare equity, emotional wellness, performance psychology, and the future of virtual care. I provide clear, concise, and thought provoking commentary that connects clinical science with real life relevance whether it's for national media, healthcare publications, or expert panels. If you're seeking an authoritative, articulate, and forward thinking mental health expert, I’m available to provide expert insight, commentary, and collaborative thought leadership.

Hypnotherapist at Hypnotherapy with Harley Sears
My professional journey began over 27 years ago as a Mental Health Specialist at a psychiatric hospital, evolving into a successful hypnotherapy practice that has helped thousands of people overcome personal challenges. I hold a Diploma in Hypnotherapy from HMI College of Hypnotherapy, a Wellness Counseling Certificate from Cornell University, and a Specialization in Integrative Health and Medicine from the University of Minnesota. What sets my practice apart is the use of pioneering techniques that push the boundaries of traditional hypnosis. Through my award-winning book "The Magic in Metaphor," I've demonstrated how storytelling creates profound emotional shifts, using carefully crafted metaphors to help children reframe challenges and discover new perspectives. I've also produced a unique approach to suggestion delivery through "Close Your Eyes," a collection of sleep music that weaves hypnotic suggestions into lo-fi compositions. Most significantly, I've developed Placebo-Enhanced Hypnotic Intervention™, my signature method that harnesses the scientifically-proven power of the placebo effect to amplify hypnotic outcomes, essentially helping clients activate their own "internal pharmacy" for healing and change. These innovative approaches reflect my commitment to evolving hypnotherapy by combining evidence-based science with creative techniques. Through Zoom for Healthcare, I work with clients nationwide—without losing the human connection that makes hypnosis so effective. My extensive client feedback, documented case studies, and reputation among healthcare workers have established me as a trusted and sought-after professional.
