I received my Masters of Science in Women’s Health from Emory University and a Post Masters Certificate in Psychiatric Mental Healthcare from the University of Maryland School of Nursing. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the College of New Rochelle. I am certified by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) as a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.

 

I am passionate about helping you to achieve optimal functioning in your pursuit to regain emotional and mental well-being. As a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner, I provide high-quality mental health care for adolescents and adults. I conduct comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and collaboratively create individualized treatment plans. I give thorough consideration to the biological, psychological, and social factors impacting your mental health. I have over 20 years of combined work experience. I have worked in various mental health care settings, including community mental health clinics, long-term care facilities, and crisis residential treatment centers.

 

I treat all individuals with compassion, respect, and honesty. My treatment approach is solution-focused, and medications are understood to be a part of the treatment and not the entire plan. Brief supportive therapy is incorporated into treatment sessions if needed. I provide medication management for a wide range of mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and ADHD for ages 18 through 64.
