Since finishing the Combined Residency program at Dartmouth Medical School in 2002, she has always worked in both fields, Psychiatry and Internal Medicine. Since 2010, she has practiced psychiatry at Westbridge Community Services, providing treatment for people with co-occurring severe mental illness and addiction. As a dually boarded physician, she is highly interested in medical issues that fall at the interaction of these specialties, such as medical care for people with severe mental illness and addiction and the quality of the experience of care for people who have both medical and psychiatric problems. The issue of chronic pain has recently become a topic of major interest due to the high prevalence of this condition and the particular challenges it presents for people with dual diagnosis.
