Hello! Starting therapy can feel daunting, but my goal is to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and supported right from the start. I believe each person’s journey is unique, so I tailor our work to meet you exactly where you are. Whether you’re navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, psychosis, or are unsure yet we’ll use approaches that fit you—not a “one-size-fits-all” plan. Sometimes this means using proven, structured methods; other times, we may explore creative tools that offer new ways to process and heal.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

I am a psychiatric nurse practitioner with a broad background in sociology. In my approach to treatment, I explore how culture, gender, and identity intersect with personality and neurochemical imbalances to produce psychiatric symptoms that impede daily functioning and interpersonal activities. Together with my clients, we determine the best pharmacological interventions to provide relief of these symptoms. I offer psychiatric evaluations, medication management, assessment for post-traumatic stress disorder, Connecticut state registration for eligible clients for medical marijuana, and Suboxone treatment.

I work with adults (26 - 64 years old) to improve the quality of their lives through a collaborative process in which client and provider together devise treatment plans that combine medication and behavioral modification. I am especially interested in men's mental health, but I work with all adults regardless of their gender identity.

In a world that is increasingly busy and complex, life can be overwhelming for all of us at some point in our lives. We all need a variety of ways to decompress. For example, I like to go to a pickleball court as often as my body will allow, where I find activity, community, and friendship. It is at these times when we need to reach out for support. Don't feel you have to struggle alone. I invite you to reach out and make a connection.
