Welcome to ROC Psychiatry, I am so glad that you found us. I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) in the state of New York with over a decade of experience in the field of psychiatry. My career began as a registered nurse working in inpatient, emergency psychiatric, and outpatient settings, and since obtaining my license as a PMHNP, I have been dedicated to providing compassionate, personalized care as a PMHNP. I specialize in psychiatric evaluations, diagnosis, and medication management for a wide range of mental health conditions.

I believe that the best outcomes come from a collaborative, individualized approach to treatment. I value open, honest communication and work closely with each patient to create a treatment plan that reflects their unique needs, values, and goals. My philosophy centers on using the fewest medications at the lowest effective doses, with shared decision-making as a cornerstone of care.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, playing golf, and retreating to the mountains. To me, my patients are more than just a number—life doesn't stop when we face challenges, but together, we can work through them and get you back to a place of balance, function, and fulfillment.
