Psychologist

I’m a licensed psychologist with more than 12 years of clinical training and experience working with adults and adolescents. Through a trauma-informed lens, I help clients navigate ADHD, strengthen their self-worth, deepen their relationships, and challenge messages that have taught them to make themselves small. I especially enjoy supporting women and gender-expansive people of color. Clients often describe me as warm, casual, curious, and gently direct.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • New York


I am dual board-certified as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner. After several years of clinical practice, I earned my doctoral degree in 2021. My experience spans both behavioral and family health settings, including hospital-based behavioral health units, partial hospitalization programs, and intensive outpatient care.

I specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of a wide range of mental health conditions, including ADHD, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, OCD, panic disorder, and PTSD. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practice and emphasizes holistic, collaborative care.

Together, we will develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs, goals, and values through a shared decision-making process.

I am committed to creating a supportive, nonjudgmental environment and to addressing disparities in mental health care. If you’re struggling, you don’t have to go through it alone. I’m here to support you with compassion, expertise, and care.
