Do you struggle with anxiety, persistent stress, low mood, difficulty focusing, or feeling overwhelmed by everyday life? If your symptoms are affecting your relationships, work, sleep, or overall well-being, psychiatric medication management may help you feel more balanced, focused, and in control. My approach to prescribing is thoughtful, evidence-based, and individualized. I take the time to understand your concerns, review your treatment history, discuss medication options, and monitor your response over time. Ongoing appointments focus on evaluating symptom improvement, assessing side effects, and making medication adjustments when clinically appropriate. My goal is to help you find an effective treatment plan that supports your functioning and quality of life. In addition to my work with adults, I specialize in treating ADHD, Autism, and Anxiety in children and teens.

I'm a psychiatric Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with a Doctorate from Boston College. My path began as a therapist (LMHC) after earning my Master's from Boston University, and that dual background in counseling and psychiatry shapes how I work today. I primarily provide medication, but I want every client to feel truly heard, understood, and safe, whether we're talking through medication decisions or working through difficult emotions.

My approach blends mind body awareness with evidence based methods including CBT, DBT, and ACT, along with skills to strengthen attention, focus, and mindfulness. Treatment is always personalized and grounded in the most current clinical research, because no two people's needs are the same.

I hold space for people ready to explore their thoughts, feelings, and treatment options. That space is welcoming, therapeutic, and encouraging. My goal is simple: help you build confidence, find peace, and take charge of your life.
