Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
Background. I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a nursing background spanning oncology and inpatient psychiatric care. Throughout my career, I have supported adults navigating complex medical treatments and mental health concerns. These experiences have strengthened my skills in patient assessment, emotional support, and holistic care while shaping my commitment to creating therapeutic environments where patients feel supported throughout their healing and recovery.
Credentials and Licensing. I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with Nurse Practitioner licenses in New Jersey, New York, and Florida. I also hold a Professional Nurse license in New Jersey and am certified in Basic Life Support (BLS).
Areas of passion and specialty. I have a particular interest in working with individuals navigating PTSD, bipolar disorder, and personality disorders. I am drawn to the complexity of these conditions and find it rewarding to provide compassionate care, interventions, and support as patients work toward healing, greater stability, and personal growth. I especially enjoy working with individuals who are open to self-exploration, actively engaged in the therapeutic process, and committed to creating positive change in their lives.
Approach. My approach is compassionate, individualized, and holistic. Depending on each patient’s needs, I incorporate cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)-based interventions to help identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns, as well as dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)-based techniques focused on emotional regulation and mindfulness. I may also incorporate holistic and creative practices, including mindfulness and art-based activities, to support overall well-being. My goal is to provide care that recognizes each patient as a whole person and supports meaningful, sustainable progress.
