As a behavioral neurologist, my primary goal during clinic visits is to determine if brain function changes in adults above the age of 50 are related to the aging process or are suggestive of a neurodegenerative disease requiring further care. Common neurodegenerative diseases that are evaluated in the clinic include Alzheimer’s disease, frontotemporal dementia, and Lewy body dementia. Another focus during clinic visit is to address all neurological, psychiatric, and medical factors which may impact brain health. It is a privilege and honor to understand a patient's life-long journey. This is an important part of the clinic visit since it allows me to identify various risk factors throughout one's life which may lead to the development of a neurodegenerative disorder. This is also one of the main reasons I chose to become a behavioral neurologist. Dr. Liu is highly rated in 5 conditions, according to our data.

As the oldest of six children in my family, I had a lot of opportunities to accompany my siblings to doctor appointments. My family's pediatrician was a wonderful person and it led me to think about medicine as a career in high school. Then I had an early exposure to mental health by volunteering at a psychiatric hospital where I observed the wonderful team work and treatment by the providers. This led me to pursue a specialization in psychiatry. However, I have always enjoyed working with children, which led me to pursue a fellowship in child psychiatry. The types of patients I treat are children and adolescents suffering from mood and anxiety disorders. My approach is to empower the young person to participate and help lead their treatment. Also, I work closely with parents to provide guidance on best treatment options. One wonderful aspect of my job is hearing how great previous patients continue to be and learn of all the positive things they are achieving outside of the office.

I was first drawn to psychiatry by a high school AP Psychology class. I found the material fascinating and knew I could spend a life learning about and providing mental health care. Since that time, I have stayed true to that path while developing loves for working with families and children impacted by autism and mental illness, preventative health care, mental health systems, and how health policy intersects with all these fields. I am truly honored to be at Duke where I have the opportunity to merge my passions. I approach each encounter and project with a focus on developing a relationship, discovering the individuality of each person and idea, and learning the unique ways that I can help and contribute. His top area of expertise is Autism Spectrum Disorder.

I treat children and families who are experiencing difficulties related to mental health challenges. My goal is to help young children and their families get the best start to a healthy life in both their physical and mental health. Before becoming a doctor, I was a high school teacher. I was struck by the ways that challenges with mental and physical health became barriers for my students reaching their full potential. I was also inspired by the strength and resilience of my students. I felt that becoming a doctor would provide me with the best opportunity to help children and adults harness their strengths. I treat children and adults for conditions like anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, and other mental health conditions. As a pediatrician, I also provide routine pediatric care, including well checks and sick visits. When there are concerns about physical and mental health, I believe there are always choices about what to do next. I work with individuals and families to understand the problem they are facing and help provide options so that they can make the best decision possible.

I was drawn to psychiatry because mental health affects all aspects of life. Good mental health care can positively affect a patient's entire life trajectory. Mental illness can range from subtle to obvious. It can present in ways that are easy to sympathize with, or in ways that challenge everyone involved. My job is to maintain a compassionate frame no matter what kind of illness I'm treating. My favorite part of my job is the teaching role- helping patients better understand their ailments, and helping improve understanding between them and their loved ones.
