am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with extensive experience providing compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care to children, adolescents, and adults.

My clinical background includes extensive work in outpatient psychiatry, behavioral health systems, detoxification and dual-diagnosis programs, and community-based mental health organizations.

Welcome! I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner who provides personalized mental health services to patients with an approachable style. I believe in person-centered care with evidence-based treatment approaches.
Many people come to psychiatry after feeling frustrated by treatments that haven't worked or appointments that felt rushed. I became a psychiatric provider because I enjoy helping people understand their symptoms and find treatment approaches that genuinely fit their needs. Before becoming a PMHNP, I received a B.S. in Clinical Psychology from Tufts University and worked in psychiatric research focused on bipolar disorder and treatment-resistant depression. Today, I provide collaborative, individualized care to patients experiencing depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, ADHD, and more.

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 Manasquan
Finding the right psychiatrist in Manasquan starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists focus on talk therapy. Medication management often includes discussing symptoms, reviewing how current care is working, and making a plan with a licensed prescriber. If you’re looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties and background before you book.
In a smaller Jersey Shore community like Manasquan, local psychiatry options may be more limited than in larger parts of New Jersey. Virtual appointments can expand your search while still helping you find a psychiatrist who fits your schedule, preferences, and insurance. Psychiatry visits for medication management are usually shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Reading bios can help you compare communication style, areas of focus, appointment availability, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Psychiatric care in Manasquan can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your session costs and understand what you may owe before care begins. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients with your plan, verify your insurance, see estimated costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person appointments when available. You can browse psychiatrists, review bios, and book directly when you’re 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.
