It is with great pleasure that I introduce myself as your dedicated mental health provider. I am an ANCC board certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner licensed to practice in New York State and Tennessee State. With a deep passion for helping others and over 15 years of experience as a mental health nurse, I am honored to serve as your trusted ally on your journey towards improved mental well-being.
Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with individuals across the lifespan, from children to adolescents to adults. My experience in direct patient care has provided me with the knowledge and expertise in managing various mental health conditions, including ADHD, OCD, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, schizophrenia, and bipolar etc.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific mental health challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored treatment plan for you and us to work through in follow-up sessions. My approach to care is rooted in empathy, collaboration, and a deep respect for your unique experiences and needs.
