About
As a person with lived experience, I seek first to understand, observe closely without judgment, and act compassionately towards those I meet personally and professionally, which allows me to make informed decisions to help them meet their highest good.
I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with 18 years of experience in nursing and behavioral health. I work with clients across the lifespan who are navigating a wide range of emotional and mental health challenges and are seeking thoughtful, collaborative care. I strive to create a supportive environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered throughout their treatment journey.
I earned my master’s degree in nursing from Eastern University. My clinical approach is mindfulness-based and grounded in helping clients harness the power of the present moment to better understand their thoughts, emotions, and lived experiences. I value meaningful dialogue and individualized care.
I believe healing begins with connection and self-awareness. My goal is to help you build insight, develop effective coping skills, and move toward the highest version of yourself while living life on your terms. I welcome the opportunity to support you—reach out today to schedule an appointment.

I am a nationally board-certified, licensed professional counselor. I've worked in residential settings with adults with severe diagnoses and opened and ran a crisis/diversion program for those struggling with mental health, substance abuse, and housing needs. Most recently, I've been a tenured professor of counseling at a community college. I've embraced working with diverse individuals—LGBTQIA+ clients, racial and ethnic minorities, and older adults—and have supervised student affinity groups, founded a diversity scholarship, and provided clinical supervision to several individuals, all of whom obtained their clinical license.
I believe the skills you need are inside you, and I work with you to identify those strengths and explore what has been in the way. I have a strong connection to identity development, transitions, and overcoming loss—of self and of loved ones. I've regularly worked with severe depression and anxiety, guiding individuals through their symptoms and day-to-day.
You matter and your experience matters. While no one may fully understand your unique experiences, feelings, and thoughts, having a space to connect with someone who really wants you to live your best life is vital. If you're ready to take that first courageous step and find a good fit for your journey, I believe you can do this.
