I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. I believe health is a human experience, not simply a clinical checklist. My background in traditional psychiatry has given me a strong understanding of mental health across diverse settings, grounded in evidence-based practice.
I take a compassionate, collaborative, and structured approach to care. I believe in creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and supported. I work closely with each individual to develop personalized treatment plans that may include medication management and supportive therapy, always focusing on realistic and meaningful progress.
My goal is to help clients better understand their mental health, build effective coping strategies, and feel empowered in their treatment journey.
Board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-BC) Specializes in comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and evidence-based psychotherapy for patients across the lifespan. Dedicated to providing compassionate, trauma-informed, and holistic care in both inpatient and outpatient settings.
As a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I partner with children, teens, and families to provide comprehensive, compassionate mental health care. My practice specializes in the evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of ADHD, anxiety, Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), depression, and OCD. I believe in looking at the whole child, blending evidence-based medical management with therapeutic support to help your child thrive at home, in school, and in life.
What uniquely informs my psychiatric practice is my foundational background in pediatric neurology. This specialized experience allows me to deeply understand the complex intersection between brain development, neurological functioning, and behavioral health. When treating conditions like ADHD or OCD, I look beyond surface-level symptoms to understand the underlying neurological drivers, allowing me to create highly precise, targeted treatment plans that standard approaches might miss.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Orchard Park, NY
Finding psychiatrists in Orchard Park starts with understanding the type of care you want to access. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication as part of ongoing care. Therapists offer talk therapy and may work with you on anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, stress, or life transitions. Both can be useful entry points, depending on what you want from care. As you compare options, look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties, experience, and care style match your needs.
Orchard Park is a smaller community within the Buffalo area, so nearby in-person psychiatry options may be more limited than in larger cities. Virtual appointments can expand your search across New York while keeping care accessible from home. Psychiatric care often includes shorter, less frequent medication management visits than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also provide therapy. Some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. When reviewing profiles, check availability, appointment format, specialties, and whether a free phone consultation is offered so you can understand fit before booking.
Psychiatric care in Orchard Park can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket cost before your first appointment. Headway helps you find psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners who are accepting new patients and match your plan. You can compare bios, review availability, see estimated costs after adding insurance, 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.
