Find a psychiatrist in Port Jefferson Station, NY — covered by insurance

PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING, thank you.

I am a board-certified Psychiatrist (medical doctor) providing virtual care throughout NY and PA. I taper medications. This means most of my patients want to safely reduce or ultimately stop taking psychiatric medications, and I guide them through that process safely and at their own pace. I include therapy in my 30-min follow up sessions, though do not offer weekly 1-hour therapy sessions. Many of my patients also work with a therapist.

Are you ready to tackle obstacles and improve your quality of life? Are you struggling with stress, anxiety, depression or ADHD? Do you find it difficult to function in school, at work or to complete tasks at home? Do you feel like other people don’t quite understand you? As I have experienced these struggles myself, know that you are not alone.

As a board-certified psychiatrist who specializes in providing medication management and psychotherapy to all ages, I believe that prioritizing mental health is the key to unlocking happiness and stability in life.

Please note: I am currently available for clinical diagnosis, custom treatment plan and a combination of therapy with medication management for monthly 30 minute follow ups & sooner for regimen changes. Currently waitlisted for more frequent talk therapy.

My individualized approach to mental health is to adapt to each client’s unique needs, meeting them where they are and collaboratively building a path forward. I strive to help each individual develop personalized strategies for managing their mental health challenges and achieving their wellness goals. I also aim to provide a safe space to build upon emotional resilience and personal growth. My goal is to empower clients to achieve and maintain long-term well-being. No struggle is too small, and everyone deserves a space to be heard and heal.

I specialize in mood disorders, dual diagnosis, and personality disorders, and I bring deep personal motivation to this work — mental illness has touched my own family, and that experience shapes how I show up for every client. I know how prevalent it is, and I believe with my whole heart that there is no shame in struggling or in seeking help. My greatest strengths are patience and a genuine drive to help people transform how they feel and rediscover that life can be better. Outside of sessions, I enjoy thrifting, exploring new foods, and spending time outdoors with my family.

Your mind and body are speaking—are you listening? As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over a decade of experience in high-stakes intensive care, I understand what many overlook: mental and physical health are inseparable.

In critical care, I saw how stress, trauma, and anxiety manifest in the body—tight chests, sleepless nights, unexplained pain. And when the pandemic hit, I witnessed the silent emotional suffering of patients, families, and healthcare workers alike. That moment changed everything.

I chose psychiatry because healing your mind is just as vital as healing your body. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or like no one sees what you’re carrying—you don’t have to hold it alone. I’m here to help you reconnect, restore, and rise.
