I am a board-certified psychiatrist who provides medically-oriented treatment for depression, Bipolar Disorder, anxiety, and Attention Deficit disorder. I pride myself as using non-addictive medications as much as possible. As a physician (MD) with a background in psychology, medicine, and neurology, my care is above average compared to providers without this background.
My approach is laser-focused, precision medication management. In addition to my clinical expertise, I mentor medical students, residents, and fellow providers. I am an Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at the Frank Netter School of Medicine. I plan to use all my clinical skills to help people achieve the maximum improvement in mental health.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP
Virtual • New York, NY
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 10 years of healthcare experience, providing telehealth psychiatry and virtual care to patients across New York. My strong medical background helps me recognize the vital link between
mental and physical health, allowing me to deliver thoughtful, integrated psychiatry services rather than treating symptoms in isolation.
I focus on medication management for anxiety and depression, along with adult ADHD, bipolar disorder, and trauma and PTSD management, using thorough psychiatric assessments, medication management, and supportive therapy for stress, burnout, and mood disorders. I also have particular experience in women’s mental health,
including postpartum depression and the concerns that often go unaddressed in general psychiatric care.
My aim is to foster a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental environment where clients feel heard and respected. I believe mental health treatment is most effective when it’s collaborative and personalized
I work closely with each client to develop a tailored
treatment plan that promotes emotional well-being, stability, and an improved quality of life.
All appointments are conducted through secure virtual care, and I accept insurance through Headway, so cost is rarely a barrier to getting started.
I am very dedicated to providing quality service to patients in my care and actively listening to their concerns

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in West Islip, NY
Finding psychiatrists in West Islip starts with knowing whether you need prescribing support, talk therapy, or both. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Therapists provide talk therapy and can also be part of your care. If you’re looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, credentials, and approach to see whether their training matches your needs.
West Islip is a smaller local market, so nearby in-person options may be more limited than in larger parts of Long Island. Virtual psychiatry can expand your choices while still letting you search for someone licensed in New York. Psychiatric medication management appointments are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also offer therapy. As you compare options, look at appointment availability, whether the psychiatrist is accepting new patients, and what their bio says about communication style, session structure, and experience with your concerns.
Psychiatric care in West Islip 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 accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify coverage, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can browse psychiatrists in and around West Islip, 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.
