Hi my name Sara and I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 10 years of experience providing psychiatric evaluations and medication management for adults facing mental health challenges. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Yale School of Nursing, and I am deeply committed to helping my patients achieve mental wellness through a compassionate, holistic, and evidence-based approach.
I specialize in diagnosing and treating a range of psychiatric disorders, including anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), PTSD, and trauma. I also have extensive experience working with individuals struggling with substance use and those with dual diagnoses.
My goal is to ensure that your psychiatric care aligns with your overall health plan. By taking an integrative approach, I consider lifestyle factors, medical conditions, and therapeutic interventions in every treatment plan.
