Great to meet you!

I am a board certified Psychiatric/Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with an MSN from Fairfield University. I've been working in mental health for the last 15 years and I specialize in medication management for anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, and addiction recovery.

My approach to therapy

In my practice, I integrate evidence-based treatments with a holistic perspective. This means I not only address the symptoms of mental illness but also consider the whole person. I explore factors such as nutrition, exercise, sleep patterns, and stress management, which play a crucial role in mental health. By doing so, I can offer more comprehensive and effective care.

What you can expect from me

My goals are to provide comprehensive, patient-centered care, addressing each individual's unique needs. I aim to foster a therapeutic relationship built on trust and open communication, ensuring patients feel heard and supported. By integrating evidence-based treatments with a holistic approach, I create personalized care plans promoting overall well-being. My ultimate goal is to empower patients to actively participate in their mental health journey, achieving optimal health and resilience.
