I believe effective mental health care starts with being heard. As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC), my goal for you is to provide a comprehensive evaluation that goes beyond symptom checklists—helping you understand what you're experiencing, why you're feeling the way you do, and what treatment options are available.

Therapist

Virtual • New Hampshire


I work with clients of all ages facing a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges, including anxiety, trauma-related symptoms, mood difficulties, chronic stress, and major life transitions. Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside while quietly feeling exhausted, avoidant, or trapped by patterns they can’t seem to change. If something in your life isn’t working, therapy can help.

My approach is relational, client-centered, and trauma-informed, with with particular expertise in contemplative and somatic practices that I am happy to share with my clients in sessions. I am known for being warm, direct and affirming. I am a rostered CPP clinician, and I also have training and experience in CBT, CPT, DBT, EMDR, Exposure Therapy, MBSR, Seeking Safety, MI, SFT, TF-CBT, MATCH, Art Therapy and IFS.

If you’re ready to step out of survival mode and into a more intentional way of living, I’d be glad to work with you.
