My website
I am a passionate, strong and caring provider who embodies a wealth of experience. My clients are in a comfortable, non-judgmental environment to discuss concerns that are important and together we can achieve personal goals. I have an open-mind and offer active listening. With 18 years of health care experience, I provide confident and competent treatment. I started as a paramedic. Then advanced my career to nursing, gaining my Bachelor’s degree. I graduated from Frontier Nursing University with my Master’s in Nursing. I have since received my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree. I am licensed to treat in Florida & New York.
I am here to help manage mental health/substance use medications and talk therapy. I offer treatment for various diagnoses including Anxiety, Depression, Bipolar D/O, Schizophrenia, Substance use disorders, Psychosis, ADHD and many more. I offer MAT treatment as well.
I strive to have a strong therapeutic relationship with my clients, as well as provide services tailored to each individual using shared-decision making.
