I'm a nurse practitioner with six years of experience across inpatient, partial hospitalization, and outpatient psychiatric settings. I specialize in addiction and substance use, depression, and general psychiatry — working exclusively with adults. After years of high-paced clinical work, I built a telehealth practice designed around real life: I see patients evenings and Saturday mornings, so quality psychiatric care doesn't have to compete with your workday. I take a practical, no-nonsense approach — focused on what actually helps you move forward.

A Safe Space for Healing, Growth and Change.
I view therapy as a collaborative process — one where you and I work together to uncover patterns, strengthen resilience, and create new possibilities. My approach combines evidence-based practices with a compassionate, person-centered perspective. I often integrate techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and Solution-Focused Therapy, while also drawing from trauma-informed and holistic frameworks. This means we’ll look not only at thoughts and behaviors, but also at how emotions and the body hold your experiences. My role is to guide, support, and empower you — helping you build insight and tools that align with your values and goals, at a pace that feels right for you.
I specialize in helping couples and adults navigate relationship challenges, cultural differences, and major life transitions. My work is especially focused on couples who feel disconnected, stuck in recurring conflict, or unsure how to rebuild trust and emotional closeness. As a Level 3 Gottman Method-trained therapist, I help partners understand their patterns, communicate more effectively, and create a stronger relationship. I also support individuals balancing career, family, cultural adjustment, and the demands of a new chapter.
