Telepsychiatry for 10016

Hello, I look forward to meeting you! I'm a Board Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with over 10 years of experience in nursing. I specialize in working with adults who have been diagnosed with mood and anxiety disorders including Major Depressive Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, Generalized Anxiety, Social Anxiety, OCD and PTSD disorders. I also work with those going through life transitions such as adjustments to illness, divorce and grief. I work with an amazing group of colleagues at Lavender, an online psychiatry and therapy office, where we believe psychiatric care shouldn't be expensive nor impossible to access.

I am an NYU-educated, ANCC Board Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with over 10 years of experience in providing authentic and non-judgmental nursing care. My focus are the treatment of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, PTSD, OCD, and insomnia. I speak English, Cantonese and Mandarin. My approach is collaborative, individualized, holistic from a shared decision-making perspective, which combine therapy styles from Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT) with IFS-informed (Internal Family System-informed) EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing).

I am a board-certified psychiatrist and graduate of the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) and New York University (NYU). After graduating as chief resident, I went on to pursue a fellowship and work in the public sector serving those most in need. My clients often include those that have been struggling with difficulties that impair their day to day function, leaving them unsatisfied, unhappy or struggling with inner turmoil or anxiety. My clients will often seek out and benefit from therapy, coaching, medication or a combination of the above. Please don’t hesitate to reach our for a free initial phone consultation.

I strive to help each patient find their way to live a rich, fulfilling life, by removing those internal obstacles that get in the way of reaching their goals. I take a comprehensive approach, starting with a full initial evaluation of your problems and establishing together the best strategy to tackle them. I believe that deep understanding can lead to long-lasting change. I work with a combination of psychotherapy techniques to help you achieve that change and to relieve suffering. When indicated, I may also recommend medications to treat symptoms that are more disabling.

The decision to engage in therapy, initiate or discontinue medications may be difficult and anxiety provoking.
