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 a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with more than 20 years of nursing experience, complemented by specialized education and clinical expertise in psychiatry and psychopharmacology. I am committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care in a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where every patient is treated with dignity, respect, and empathy.
My approach is collaborative and patient-centered, empowering individuals to actively participate in their mental health journey. I work closely with each patient to develop personalized treatment plans that may include medication management, psychotherapy, lifestyle modifications, and complementary approaches such as nutrition, exercise, and other evidence-based interventions. My goal is to help patients build resilience, improve their overall well-being, and achieve lasting, meaningful improvements in their mental health and quality of life.
For ten years, I have worked alongside children with autism, ADHD, anxiety, depression, and OCD. My career in pediatric nursing shaped how I see each young person I work with: as a whole child in the context of their family, their school, and their community. Now I am building my psychiatric practice around the children who deserve specialized care from someone who genuinely understands them. I work with children, adolescents, and young adults. I take the time needed to get it right, because every child's situation is different.

Everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive, regardless of their circumstances. Whether addressing addiction, mood disorders, or other mental health challenges, I strive to make a meaningful difference in the lives of my clients by offering comprehensive, integrative care. If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d love to support you!
I earned my Bachelor of Nursing from University of Connecticut (Go Huskies!) before moving to Boston to start my career in bedside nursing in 2019. After serving as an RN and Director of Nursing at a residential treatment center, I earned my PMHNP at Regis College to specialize in mental health. Since then, I’ve gained diverse experience providing cutting-edge ketamine therapy in outpatient clinics and managing complex cases in inpatient psychiatry. Now, I’m bringing that clinical expertise—along with post-graduate training in CBT—to my full-time private practice, where I provide comprehensive, compassionate care for patients navigating anxiety, depression, OCD and ADHD in the South Boston area.

Frequently asked questions
Find the right psychiatrist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Massachusetts
Searching for psychiatrists in Massachusetts starts with knowing which type of care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Therapists provide talk therapy and support through different approaches. If you are looking for care for anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or obsessive-compulsive disorder, either talk therapy, medication management, or both may be part of your search. Across urban and rural parts of Massachusetts, available psychiatrists and areas of focus can vary, so look for a bio that clearly lists experience with your concerns.
Practical fit matters, too. Whether you are looking near Boston, Worcester, Springfield, or another part of Massachusetts, consider appointment format, scheduling, and whether the psychiatrist is accepting new patients. Medication management appointments are usually shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Virtual appointments can add flexibility, while in-person visits may be easier to fit near home, work, or school. Reading psychiatrist profiles can help you compare communication style, specialties, appointment structure, and consultation options before you book.
Psychiatric care in Massachusetts can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who match your needs and are accepting new patients, and you can enter your insurance details to confirm whether a provider accepts your plan. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. From there, you can review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you are ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
