I am a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, specializing in psychopharmacology. I received both a Bachelors and Master’s Degree in nursing from the Massachusetts General Hospital Institute of Health Professions. Prior to becoming a nurse practitioner I worked as a psychotherapist and have my MSW from Boston College. I have extensive experience working in inpatient, partial hospital, outpatient and college health settings. I have a special interest in women's mental health across the lifespan, including the perinatal and postpartum period. I also especially enjoy working with young adults and college students.
I specialize in the treatment of mood disorders, anxiety disorders, and trauma related disorders. Outside of private practice, I work at the National Institutes of Health caring for patients on the inpatient behavioral health unit as part of a research team focused on better understanding mood disorders and developing new treatments for depression.
I strive to provide personalized care, focusing on clients' individual needs and goals. Outside of work, I like to cook, take on DIY projects, hike, and spend time with family.
