I diagnose and treat adults and adolescents with all psychiatric illnesses. However, I don’t get hung up on labels and diagnoses. My patients describe me as authentic because I treat each person as an individual with their own specific symptoms and needs. I am committed to providing a safe space for LGBTQIA+ patients. I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and have worked in psychiatry for over six years. I earned my BSN and MSN from The George Washington University. While I primarily do medication management, I am also trained in DBT and existential therapy.

I offer medication management for the full spectrum of mental illness. I work with thought, mood, and personality disorders. I always do a screening call before scheduling the first assessment so I can make sure I understand your individual needs.

Matt is my go-to when I am asked who I recommend to prescribe psychiatric medications. I have sent family, friends, and clients his way. He is down to earth, listens, and is empathetic. His approach is collaborative and open.

Types of Therapy

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
Eclectic
Existential

While I am familiar with several forms of therapy, I am not the primary therapist for most of my patients. My focus is on medication management, and if we can use a little therapy, that's lovely, but my main job is making sure you're getting the correct medical treatment.
