Seeking help can feel overwhelming, and finding the right provider matters. I provide a warm, welcoming space where clients can feel heard, respected, and supported. I worked in community health for several years as a bilingual nurse practitioner and place great value in providing culturally competent care.

I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner. I earned both my Doctor of Nursing Practice and Master of Science in Nursing degrees from Columbia University. My clinical training includes experience in child, adolescent, and adult inpatient psychiatry, as well as school-based and private practice settings. Prior to becoming a nurse practitioner, I worked as a registered nurse in a detox and rehab facility serving individuals with substance use disorders, many from underserved backgrounds, including low-income, formerly incarcerated, and unhoused populations. I currently practice in a federally qualified health center.

I work with adults who want to better understand their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors so they can feel less overwhelmed by anxiety or depression. Together, we’ll explore what’s happening beneath the surface and develop practical tools that support both your immediate relief and your longer-term goals. My approach is collaborative, thoughtful, and paced to match where you are right now.

With over 30 years of experience, I specialize in supporting older adults and their families through some of life's most profound and challenging transitions — including dementia, aging, grief and loss, serious mental illness, and end-of-life concerns. I understand that these experiences can feel isolating and overwhelming, and I believe that having a compassionate, non-judgmental space to talk makes a real difference.

I am a licensed mental health counselor with 6 years experience in outpatient therapy, school based therapy, and emergency mental health services. I have a vast background in human services dating back to 2004 supporting folks with developmental disabilities, acquired brain injuries, adult foster care, and homeless populations.

I’m a caring and nonjudgmental therapist who believes everyone deserves a safe space to be heard and supported.

If you are feeling lost, confused, and unhappy with the direction life is going, let's work together to address what is holding you back. "Finding My Potential" is something you are seeking; then let's work on ways to cope with challenging thoughts, identify skills you can use to move forward, look holistically at habits/lifestyle, and develop a road map that gets you on the path you were meant for. It is important to note that this approach is based on a treatment session connected to techniques and actions you will do between sessions. I look forward to working with you.

I have a broad background in therapy, having managed and worked as a therapist in a variety of services. As an individual therapist, I have done the most work with teenagers, children, and young adults. I have provided individual counseling to adults, families, and couples. I am trained in cognitive behavioral therapy, with a commitment to outcomes.

What should your client know about you?

I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with over 15 years of experience working with adolescents and adults across a range of mental health concerns, including mood disorders, anxiety, stress, and life transitions. I also work with individuals with Neurodevelopmental disorders such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Intellectual Developmental Disorder (IDD), learning disorders, and communication disorders.

I am at my best when I am a guide for others. I start by listening and developing understanding of who you are, what you value, and where you struggle. I will help you to find your way back to yourself and develop the trust you need in yourself to live your best life. I use an approach that is very collaborative offering tools and resources, but assisting you to choose your own direction.

We all struggle at times, especially in the way we live these days. I can help you understand how and why you may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected and develop strategies to move through this to a happier, more grounded, and more confident version of yourself.

I strive to help clients by being curious, kind, reliable, and insightful. This is how I believe therapy helps people to grow, and to ultimately feel better about themselves and their lives.

I primarily work through a psychodynamic lens, focusing on a client's emotional life, exploring connections between a client's past and present, and addressing internal conflicts. I also use ideas found in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy such as exploring thought patterns and negative core beliefs.
