186 Lincoln St, Ste 214, Boston, MA
*After booking, you will receive a link via Canvas to set up your patient portal. Setting up your patient portal is required to complete your appointment.* As a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP), I specialize in diagnosing and treating mental health and substance use disorders across the lifespan, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), adjustment disorders, and personality disorders. I incorporate evidence-based therapy modalities such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), acceptance & commitment therapy (ACT), exposure therapy, and motivational interviewing.
