About My Clients

Clients can expect a supportive and nonjudgmental environment. The initial visit is focused on getting to know you, including your concerns, symptoms, personal history, and what brings you to care at this time. I will ask about your mental health, medical background, lifestyle, and goals to gain a comprehensive understanding of your needs. We will also discuss any prior treatment experiences and what has or has not worked for you.

My Background and Approach

I earned both my Doctor of Nursing Practice and Master of Science in Nursing degrees from Columbia University. My clinical training includes experience in outpatient community health, school-based mental health, private practice, and child, adolescent, and adult inpatient psychiatry. Prior to becoming a nurse practitioner, I worked as a registered nurse in a detox and rehab facility serving individuals with substance use disorders, including low-income, formerly incarcerated, and unhoused populations.
