As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), I am committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care in a supportive and judgment-free environment. I work with adults experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, ADHD, schizophrenia, and substance use disorders.

My goal is to help clients feel heard, understood, and actively involved in their treatment. I believe in building a strong therapeutic relationship through trust, empathy, and collaboration. Together, we’ll develop a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your goals and may include medication management, supportive therapy, and practical strategies to improve your overall well-being.

I understand that seeking mental health care can feel overwhelming, and I strive to make the process approachable and comfortable. Whether you’re beginning treatment for the first time or looking for a new provider, I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward healing and lasting wellness.

My path to becoming a psychiatric nurse practitioner was inspired by personal experiences. The stigma of mental health obstructs many people's journeys to achieving happiness. As a US Army Veteran, I have seen firsthand how this affects the lives of those struggling and their families. My goal is to enhance awareness and reduce the stigma.

I have a particular passion for working with men, especially guys in their 20s and 30s. A lot of the young men I see are dealing with something the research is only now catching up to — an erosion of in-person connection, a sense of drift, and a shortage of spaces where they can actually say what's going on. I'm genuinely excited and motivated by this work because I believe this generation of men needs — and deserves — real support. That said, I also welcome clients navigating anxiety, discouragement, depression, workplace stress, relationship dynamics, and life transitions of all kinds.

I'm a Brooklyn-bred Psychotherapist and earned my LCSW in 2009. I previously worked in the corporate world, and understand pressure, ambition, career transitions, and what it feels like when the thing you've built your identity around stops fitting. Since becoming a therapist, I've worked in hospitals, outpatient clinics, substance abuse treatment, and psych rehab before settling into a private practice where I'm focused on the work I care most about.
