Great to meet you!

Hello, I’m so glad you’re here. I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner licensed in Massachusetts. I specialize in treating anxiety, ADHD, depression, OCD, PTSD, postpartum mental health, and more. I also have a special interest and experience in working with pediatric and maternal populations. My goal is to provide thoughtful, individualized care that meets you where you are and supports your unique mental health goals.

My approach to therapy

I offer a collaborative and individualized approach to care, with the goal of making sure you feel heard, understood, and genuinely supported. I believe it’s important that you feel comfortable asking questions, sharing concerns, and being open about what you’re experiencing throughout the treatment process.

I strive to see each patient as a whole person rather than focusing solely on a diagnosis or symptoms. Your past experiences, values, goals, personality, and individual circumstances all play an important role in shaping your treatment plan. Together, we’ll explore what you’re experiencing and identify an approach that feels appropriate and manageable for you.

My priority is to create a comfortable, judgment-free environment where you can be yourself and feel safe having honest conversations about your mental health. I value building a strong therapeutic relationship and believe that trust and open communication are an important foundation for meaningful, long-term care.

What you can expect from me

During our first call, we’ll take the time to get to know one another and discuss what brings you in, your current concerns, and relevant psychiatric and medical history. We’ll work together to better understand your symptoms and goals, then discuss treatment options, including medications and whether adding therapy may be helpful as part of your care.
