Anxiety and depression can make everyday life feel exhausting — and finding the right support shouldn't add to that. I'm a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner practicing via telehealth across New York State, and I genuinely love what I do. My style is collaborative: I'm not here to hand you a prescription and send you on your way. I want to understand your full picture — your history, your goals, what you've tried before — and build a plan that actually fits your life. Care works best when it feels like a partnership, and that's exactly what I aim for. There's no one-size-fits-all when it comes to mental health, and I'll never treat it that way. If you're ready to take the next step — or even just curious about what that might look like — I'd love to connect.
I provide compassionate, collaborative care for clients experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, mood concerns, life transitions, and other mental health challenges. My goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and actively involved in your treatment.
My style is warm, practical, and patient-centered. I work with you to better understand what you are experiencing, identify meaningful goals, and create a treatment plan that fits your needs. With my background in both mental health and family practice, I take a whole-person approach to care that supports both emotional well-being and overall wellness.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in New Hartford, NY
Finding psychiatrists in New Hartford starts with knowing which type of care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication. Therapists focus on talk therapy and related support. If you are looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner may be part of your care plan. Review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and bio to see whether their experience matches what you want to address.
New Hartford is a smaller market near Utica, so local appointment options may be more limited than in larger cities. Virtual psychiatry can expand your search while still letting you connect with a licensed psychiatrist in New York. Psychiatric appointments for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. As you compare options, look at availability, appointment format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Psychiatric care in New Hartford can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners who are accepting new patients, enter your insurance details, and see estimated costs upfront. You can browse profiles, compare virtual and in-person options, and book directly when you are ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
