Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • New York


I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. I believe health is a human experience, not simply a clinical checklist. My background in traditional psychiatry has given me a strong understanding of mental health across diverse settings, grounded in evidence-based practice.

I take a compassionate, collaborative, and structured approach to care. I believe in creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and supported. I work closely with each individual to develop personalized treatment plans that may include medication management and supportive therapy, always focusing on realistic and meaningful progress.

My goal is to help clients better understand their mental health, build effective coping strategies, and feel empowered in their treatment journey.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Brooklyn, NY

Finding postpartum therapists in Brooklyn starts with looking for experience in perinatal mental health care. Postpartum concerns can include depression, anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties in postpartum, prenatal depression, maternal mental health therapy, or perinatal support. A PMH-C credential can also signal advanced training in care during pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood.

Brooklyn has many therapists across neighborhoods, but the right match also needs to fit your schedule, location, and care needs. For new parents, virtual therapy can make it easier to meet with a therapist during unpredictable schedules, infant care, and physical recovery. You may also want to compare appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can help you understand their approach, experience as a therapist for new moms, and what sessions may look like before you book.

Therapy in Brooklyn can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you search for postpartum therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
