Hello, I'm glad you're taking the first step in seeking a therapist/psychiatric nurse practitioner, and I hope we get the opportunity to work together on your goals! I am on a mission to help my clients in any way that I can. I believe in unconditional compassion and use a client-centered approach to promote growth and support clients of all races, genders, and cultures. I will strive to guide you or your family member in making positive and sustainable changes that ultimately lead to a more rewarding and satisfying life. I do this through medication management, if appropriate, and psychotherapy. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and adults. I pride myself on providing high-quality mental health services and employ a therapeutic style that can be applied to a wide variety of presenting problems. My holistic approach includes interventions from Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Psychodynamic, and Schema-Focused Therapy. I also incorporate your culture and identity into my practice, ensuring interventions are culturally aware and tailored to your needs. My prescribing guidelines are evidence-based and used only when appropriate to enhance your care. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from West Chester University, which has equipped me with a strong foundation to support my clients effectively. I am devoted to improving access to care by ensuring a next business day appointment is offered from the time of your first contact. I hope to join you in a therapeutic relationship where you will always be treated with the respect you deserve and receive expert attention on your current life stressors.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
