Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Medway, MA


I am a Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) who offers compassionate, trauma-informed medication management within a warm, collaborative space. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, mood changes, trauma-related symptoms, and periods of transition, and I deeply value creating a sense of safety and understanding in the therapeutic relationship.

I approach mental health with curiosity and care, believing that symptoms often carry important information about what the nervous system has been holding or managing for a long time. Clients often share that they feel heard, respected, and less alone in our work together. My intention is to support people in reconnecting with themselves and moving through life with greater steadiness and self-trust.

It can be incredibly difficult to untie the emotional knots that complicate relationships, self-confidence, and understanding the past. Therapy is a safe opportunity to uncover these core issues and learn practical techniques that foster deeper insight. I believe that with this insight you can make meaningful, lasting changes.

We all face challenges and joys and I am no stranger to either. My road to therapy began about 15 years ago after experiencing my own trauma and grief. I was left feeling stuck on repeat and I needed to take back my power. Finding my way to the other side my best side was to learn and develop the tools to support others. I lean into supporting mothers and caregivers as it isn't always easy or predictable. My special education background lends me to advocate for children and families in the home and in the community. I love to support and make a plan for blended families. And my desire is to help couples and intimate partners find fulfillment and connection.

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Arlington

On Headway, you can read detailed provider bios to learn about their approach, specialties, and experience before reaching out.
