Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Hamden, CT

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to helping individuals feel heard, understood, and supported throughout their mental health journey. I provide compassionate, individualized care for adolescents and adults experiencing concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, OCD, bipolar disorder, and other mental health challenges.

My approach combines comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and evidence-based therapeutic interventions. I believe treatment should be collaborative—not simply about prescribing medication. I take time to understand your symptoms, experiences, concerns, and goals so that we can develop a treatment plan that makes sense for you.

I'm a licensed professional counselor with over 15 years of clinical experience. I have worked in a variety of settings such as residential, partial hospital programs, and outpatient services. I have training in CBT, DBT, and ACT approaches. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and young adults.

As a clinician, I enjoy working with everyone in all phases of life helping in building self-esteem, managing addiction, trauma, self-discovery, medication management, anger management, re-establishing one's dreams/purpose, building/strengthening relationships one has with self, partners or family systems.

I have worked with foster children, young adults, primary care staff and patients, those who struggled with substance abuse in a methadone clinic, provided supervision to non-licensed social workers in the hospital.

I welcome the opportunity to meet with you for a consultation to see if working together would be a great match like a grilled cheese or peanut butter sandwich.

Best of luck on your journey to health and wellness.
