Great to meet you!

I am a dual-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a comprehensive approach to patient care that integrates physical and mental health. I completed my graduate education at Molloy College and have several years of clinical experience in primary care, caring for individuals across the lifespan.

My clinical background supports a holistic perspective that emphasizes individualized, evidence-based care. I work with patients experiencing a range of concerns, including stress-related conditions, mood changes, and life transitions. My practice approach prioritizes thoughtful assessment, collaborative treatment planning, and a respectful, supportive environment that promotes overall well-being and long-term health.

My approach to therapy

I believe healing happens when mind, body, and spirit are treated in harmony. My approach combines holistic insight with modern medicine, whether we’re exploring therapeutic strategies, discussing lifestyle changes, or finding the right medications together. I take the time to truly understand your story, and I tailor care to match your individual needs, values, and goals. Collaborative, culturally sensitive, and nonjudgmental care is at the heart of every session.

What you can expect from me

You can expect to leave each session feeling more empowered, more understood, and more equipped to manage your mental and emotional health. Whether you’re seeking support for anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, or medication management, we’ll work together to uncover strengths, build resilience, and move toward lasting wellness.
