Seeking treatment is a difficult decision to make and for that I am here to congratulate you on the courage and strength it took to embark on your journey of healing and wellness. Regardless of the difficulties you are experiencing, together we will engage in a mutual collaboration to explore your treatment goals and build insight and awareness into your inner self. At times, the mind can become our greatest enemy with thoughts that can be hard to share with others. However, do not fear, as my role is to create a safe and trusting therapeutic space, where thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are non-judgmentally explored.
I'm a Columbia-trained, board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner. My practice is tailored to your needs, whether that be psychotherapy, medications, or both. Historically, I have experience working with LGBT+ clients and the forensic population. Currently, my work is in community psychiatry, where I treat a wide range of psychiatric disorders.
In our work together, growth is facilitated by a person-centered and trauma-informed approach that promotes feelings of worth in an environment where uniqueness and differences are accepted. I invite you to reach out for a free consultation to see if we are a right fit for each other and to discuss potential treatment options based on your personal needs.
