I am a dual-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing care to adolescents and adults through a warm, holistic, and evidence-based approach. I completed my Family Nurse Practitioner training at Long Island University and later advanced my training with a post master’s certification in psychiatric mental health at Liberty University. My background across urgent care and outpatient settings has allowed me to care for a wide range of conditions, while recognizing the strong connection between physical health, anxiety, depression, and overall emotional well-being.

I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma-related concerns, stress, and life transitions, including those managing both medical and mental health conditions. I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and medication management, while also creating a supportive space where you feel heard, respected, and understood. My goal is to help you feel more stable, clear, and in control of your mental health.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing trauma-informed therapy for adults navigating anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, emotional dysregulation, life transitions, and patterns that may no longer be serving them. My professional background includes work in outpatient behavioral health settings, where I’ve worked with clients experiencing complex trauma, attachment wounds, and longstanding relational patterns that may contribute to various mental health concerns. Clients often come to therapy feeling stuck in cycles of people-pleasing, emotional overwhelm, self-criticism, unhealthy relationship dynamics, or difficulty understanding why they react the way they do. Together, we work to identify where these patterns originate and develop healthier, more intentional ways of responding.

Hello I am Jenn, I have a graduate degree from The College of St Rose in Albany, and NYS licensed Master CASAC. I am most proud of the well seasoned life experience that comes with being a Gen X.

Clients can expect authenticity, an open mind, and an understanding space to explore traumatic and challenging belief systems (that no longer work), emotional dysregulation, coping skills, communication skills (boundary setting, healthy communication, self care), and future focused guidance and support.

Clients will improve social, relational and professional interactions. Clients are free to express themselves mindfully and reflect intentionally about challenging behavior and racing thoughts. I will always provide compassionate non-judgmental, and ethical care.

Frequently asked questions

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Brooklyn

Finding the right OCD therapist in Brooklyn starts with understanding what kind of care works best for you. Obsessive-compulsive disorder is often addressed with structured therapeutic approaches, and a qualified mental health professional can help you understand which options may be appropriate for you. Some people also work with a psychiatrist for medication management alongside therapy. When browsing providers, look for a licensed therapist or psychiatrist who lists OCD as a specialty — not just a general area of practice — and read their bio to understand their approach and training.

Brooklyn is home to a wide range of mental health providers, but narrowing your search can take time. Consider what matters most to you beyond specialty: whether you prefer virtual or in-person sessions, a provider who shares your cultural background, or someone available on evenings or weekends. A free phone consultation can help you gauge whether a provider's style feels like the right match before you commit to a full session.

Therapy in New York City can be expensive, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to bring costs down. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. That makes it easier to find an OCD specialist in Brooklyn who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
