Great to meet you!

I am a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with training and experience treating adult clients' mental health challenges often related to early childhood emotional, verbal, physical, and sexual trauma. My education includes a Master of Science in Nursing, Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner specialization from Hunter College, and a Doctorate in progress with a focus on psychological trauma at the City of New York Graduate Center.

My approach to therapy

I bring to practice a humanistic philosophy of holistic care for mind, body, and spirit. I am committed to providing individualized, personalized, comprehensive care for patients.

What you can expect from me

Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, or any other issue, I will help you resolve symptoms, fully realize your strengths, and adjust certain behaviors and thoughts to see things differently and healthier.
