I am a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. I graduated with my masters from New York University. I have worked on an inpatient psychiatry unit and in an outpatient clinic. I have experience working with chronic mental illness such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, and anxiety.
What matters to me is providing care to everyone in the community and making sure that care is accessible and culturally-competent. Mental health has always been my passion and was always put on the back-burner of medical care. It is just now with the rise in depression and anxiety that the stigma behind mental health treatment is lessening. I love to see where we go with mental health care in the future.
I encourage progress by providing medication management and therapeutic interventions that are tailored to you and relieve the symptoms that you are struggling with. I emphasize the mind-body connection and cultivating a therapeutic relationship. I will work with you based on your individual needs starting from the first session.
