Hi! I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with clinical experience in various settings and a broad range of mental health and psychiatric experiences. I use an eclectic and integrated style that blends elements of psychoanalysis, trauma informed care, and mindfulness. I specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of psychological challenges related to traumatic events, life transitions and relationship difficulties.
I approach care in a warm, holistic, relational and culturally sensitive manner that allows my clients to feel comfortable expressing themselves and to be proactive members in their own treatment. I create a safe space that fosters the exploration of thoughts, emotions and behaviors.
By the end of the first session, patients take away a strong sense of validation that their care is with the appropriate clinician that not only emphasizes shared decision-making but is also skilled in psychopharmacological therapy. In each subsequent visit, patients can expect to have a combination of psychotherapy and medication management components within their care, that mirror their therapeutic pace.
