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. My work stems from my belief that healing is always possible and that hope is a powerful force for change. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions, I offer a safe, welcoming space where we can work together to rediscover your strength and resilience.

Hi there, and welcome!
Congrats on taking the first step. As a licensed psychotherapist, my passion is listening and tuning into my clients' strengths, challenges, and what's holding them back from experiencing their best selves - and going from there. I work with adults of all ages, and specialize in trauma, anxiety, and depression. I hold a Masters from Fordham University's Graduate School of Social Services, completed a two-year training program at the Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy, and am EMDR trained.
I am a trauma therapist who helps adults heal from painful experiences, long standing emotional patterns ,and the stress that can build up in both the mind and the body.
My style is warm, direct , and thoughtful, and I work with clients who want more than symptom relief - they want deeper understanding, lasting change, and a stronger sense of self. I also bring a wellness perspective to therapy, recognizing the impact of stress, sleep, lifestyle and the nervous system health on emotional well-being.
