As a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner and a proud graduate of D'Youville College, I provide a compassionate, faith-based approach to mental health care.

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.

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 Poughkeepsie

Finding the right psychiatrist in Poughkeepsie starts with understanding the type of care you need. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and monitor how those medications are working over time. If you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or PTSD, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner (PMHNP) may be a good fit. PMHNPs hold advanced nursing degrees and can also prescribe and manage medication for mental health care.

With a limited number of psychiatrists practicing in Dutchess County, many people in the Poughkeepsie area expand their search to include virtual appointments. Virtual sessions with a licensed provider are a common option for ongoing care and follow-up, and they can give you access to a broader pool of providers beyond your immediate area. On Headway, you can filter by session format to find providers who offer virtual visits, in-person appointments, or both.

Psychiatry sessions can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront — and your out-of-pocket expense may be as low as $0 per session, though costs may vary based on your location and exact insurance coverage. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a psychiatrist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
