You don't have to have it all figured out to reach out. My ideal clients are adolescents, adults, and seniors navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, schizophrenia, or grief — often carrying burdens they haven't yet been able to name. As a 9/11 survivor and former hospice nurse, I bring both clinical expertise and deeply personal experience to this work. I know firsthand what it means to face the unimaginable and find resilience on the other side — and that shapes how I show up for every person I work with. Together, we build a plan around your goals and your life.
As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I offer both medication management and talk therapy for anxiety, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, ADHD, grief, and more. I use evidence-based approaches including CBT and Motivational Interviewing to support lasting, meaningful change.
Whatever you're carrying — whether it feels overwhelming, unnamed, or like something you've been managing alone for too long — you deserve a space where you're truly heard. My clients often tell me they feel at ease quickly, and that trust is the foundation of everything we build together. I'd love to be that person for you.
