I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with 13 years of experience supporting adults in their mental health and recovery journeys. Throughout my career, I have worked as both a nurse clinician and nurse practitioner in community mental health settings, including providing outpatient behavioral health services. I specialize in addiction medicine and treat alcohol and opioid use disorders, as well as a range of behavioral health concerns. My approach centers on respect, dignity, safety, and whole-person well-being.

I earned my Master of Science in nursing from Quinnipiac University. I utilize medication-assisted treatment using Suboxone, buprenorphine, oral naltrexone, and acamprosate. I prioritize building strong therapeutic alliances and collaborative treatment plans.

I provide a safe, supportive environment where you can openly share your concerns and work toward your recovery goals. Together, we will develop a personalized plan tailored to your needs, helping you strengthen resilience, gain stability, and move forward with confidence.
