About me

I am a psychiatry specialist in Medellín, with 15 years of experience treating mood disorders, anxiety, sleep disturbances, obesity, and chronic pain.

My calling is to serve. Every patient who comes to my practice often arrives after a challenging journey, and my commitment is to listen carefully, diagnose thoroughly, and provide warm support.

I work with an integrative approach that combines precision pharmacology, psychoeducation, and coordination with other specialists. I am particularly interested in obesity psychiatry —the relationship between mental health, nutrition, and metabolism— and the neuropsychiatric perspective in chronic pain management.

I have a particular interest and broad experience in diagnosing and treating adult ADHD and bipolar disorder — two conditions that are frequently underdiagnosed in Colombia. I support patients who have spent years searching for an explanation for their attention difficulties, emotional regulation, or mood changes, offering a rigorous diagnosis and an individualized treatment plan.

I believe mental health is not a luxury: it is the foundation of everything else.

Frequently asked

When should I consult a psychiatrist?
You should consider consulting a psychiatrist when emotional distress —such as sadness, anxiety, insomnia, or irritability— lasts more than two weeks, interferes with your work, relationships, or daily life, or when a psychologist recommends psychiatric evaluation. Also, when medication is needed to complement psychotherapy.
Are psychiatric medications habit-forming?
Most modern antidepressants and anxiolytics do not create physical dependence in the strict sense. Some medications for insomnia or acute anxiety do require close supervision. I always discuss the benefits and risks of each treatment openly with my patients.
Do you offer virtual consultations?
Yes, I offer teleconsultations for patients across Colombia. Many patients prefer the privacy and convenience of consulting from home, especially for mental health. Virtual care offers the same quality as in-person appointments.
