Great to meet you!

Welcome! I am a Dual-Certified Nurse Practitioner specializing in Adult Gerontology Medicine and Psychiatry with 13+ years of experience caring for Adults and Seniors. I practice in MA (in-office and tele-health) and NH (tele-health only). My practice specializes in Geriatric mental health, focusing on mood disorders such as Major depression, Generalized Anxiety, ADHD and supporting caregivers facing burnout related to Dementia, Alzheimer’s and other behavioral health challenges. I encompass Acute inpatient hospital and Post Acute rehab medicine experience in addition to special populations including Veterans and Military families. I am a Certified Medicinal Cannabis educator. I am Certified for Asylum Medicine (Forensics) & Psychological Assessments. My formal education from Howard University (BS-Biology/Pre-Med) University of Massachusetts-Lowell (BSN, MSN -AGNP) and Purdue Global University (MSN-PMNHP) has shaped my commitment to helping patients, families and all caregivers feel understood and empowered on their journey to better mental health. I accept Medicare, Masshealth and most commercial insurances in MA and NH.

My approach to therapy

I commit to working closely with Primary care teams to reduce stigma and ensure compassionate, comprehensive care for those seeking mental health stabilization.

What you can expect from me

In my practice, I set clear goals to promote holistic well-being, such as improving patients' quality of life, fostering resilience, and supporting functional independence. I strive to create a supportive and inclusive environment where individuals feel safe, respected, and encouraged to actively participate in their treatment plans. Collaboration and open communication are central, ensuring every patient and caregiver has their voice heard and their unique needs addressed.
