Hello I have been a practicing therapist for 20 years. I received my Masters degree from Buffalo University in 2005. I continue to receive and seek education to further my skill set.
I am a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of nursing experience, including emergency care. I am passionate about mental health and providing holistic, patient-centered treatment through a combination of medication management and therapeutic support. My goal is to help patients feel heard, stabilized, and empowered in their care.
I am a licensed clinical psychologist practicing in New Jersey and New York. I support individuals coping with anxiety, depression, executive functioning challenges, life transitions, and relationship stressors. I am a warm, active listener. I will help you to slow down and gain a deeper understanding of your thoughts and feelings. Together, we can piece together what is and is not working for you and identify practical solutions.
I’m a Board-Certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with nearly two decades of experience supporting individuals and families through behavioral health and substance use challenges. My approach is grounded in trauma‐informed care, cultural sensitivity, and meeting people exactly where they are. I believe healing happens when people feel seen, heard, and supported without judgment.
I completed my Master of Science in Nursing at Monmouth University and have worked across inpatient, outpatient, community, and addiction treatment settings. My background includes detox and MAT services, crisis stabilization, care coordination, and leading interdisciplinary teams. I also serve as a clinical instructor for BSN students, which keeps me connected to education, mentorship, and the next generation of nurses.
Hi, I’m a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I graduated from Drexel University with my Master's degree in Nursing. I then completed my Post-Graduate Certificate in Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I have over twenty years of experience working in healthcare. Psych has always been my passion. My experiences encompass working with clients across the life span, including Child and Adolescents, Adult, and Geriatric patient populations. I’ve provided services to clients presenting with many psychiatric disorders, such as Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, and more. I’m in the belief that mental health wellbeing is a priority. Human beings are resilient. Holistic care is the key to promoting better patient outcomes. Therefore, I believe that with an evidence-based practice treatment plan consisting of psychotherapy and/or a combination of psychotherapy and medication management, one will be able to control their mental health.
I’m a very compassionate, caring, and empathetic person. I strive to provide holistic care and collaborate with my clients to develop a treatment plan that they are comfortable with.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Newark
Finding the right OCD therapist in Newark starts with understanding what kind of care you need. Obsessive-compulsive disorder is typically addressed with specialized approaches like exposure and response prevention (ERP) or cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Some people may choose to discuss treatment options, including medication support, with a qualified psychiatrist. Look for a licensed provider — such as an LPC, LCSW, psychologist, or psychiatrist — who has direct experience working with OCD.
Newark has a range of mental health providers, and narrowing your options can take time. Consider what matters most to you, whether that's a provider who offers virtual sessions, speaks your language, or has experience with a specific OCD subtype. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match before your first session.
Therapy in Newark can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce 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. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find an OCD specialist who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
