Psychiatric Mental Health NP

I am a compassionate and dedicated Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner committed to providing high-quality mental health care to individuals. I strive to help patients achieve emotional wellness, stability, and improved quality of life.

My approach to care is patient-centered, evidence-based, and collaborative. I believe in building trusting relationships with patients, families, and caregivers while creating individualized treatment plans that address both mental and physical health needs. I am experienced in managing conditions such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, PTSD, schizophrenia, mood disorders, behavioral disorders, and other complex psychiatric conditions.

I also bring valuable experience working with children and adolescents facing emotional, behavioral, developmental, and academic challenges. I am skilled in evaluating and treating conditions such as ADHD, anxiety disorders, depression, oppositional behaviors, trauma-related disorders, autism spectrum-related concerns, and mood dysregulation. I work closely with parents, guardians, schools, therapists, and pediatric providers to create comprehensive treatment plans that support emotional growth, school success, and family functioning.

In addition, I have extensive experience working with geriatric populations and individuals living with dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, and other neurocognitive disorders. I am skilled in assessing cognitive decline and managing behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia such as agitation, aggression, anxiety, depression, sleep disturbance, and psychosis, while promoting dignity, safety, and quality of life. I collaborate closely with families, caregivers, nursing staff, and interdisciplinary teams to develop supportive care plans and provide education regarding disease progression, behavioral strategies, and medication options.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right psychiatrist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Forest Hills

Finding the right psychiatrist in Forest Hills starts with understanding what kind of care you need. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and in some cases provide talk therapy. If you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or medication management, a psychiatrist may be the right fit. Psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) can also prescribe and manage medication and are another option available through Headway.

With many mental health providers practicing across Queens — from Forest Hills and Kew Gardens to Rego Park and Jackson Heights — narrowing your search can take time. Consider what matters most to you, whether that's a provider who specializes in a specific condition, offers virtual appointments, or practices close to your neighborhood. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match before you book.

Psychiatry in the Forest Hills area can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and with insurance, session costs may be as low as $0 per visit, but costs may vary based on your location and exact coverage. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans. Enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm what coverage is available in Forest Hills and see your estimated costs.
