I am an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) holding full prescriptive authority to serve the needs of clients in Connecticut. I have over a decade of experience treating individuals with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, insomnia and addiction in clinical settings including primary urgent care as well as psychiatric emergency room services and outpatient practice. While more than comfortable I feel utilizing medication as appropriate in treating psychiatric disorders, I am not averse to employing complementary medicine such as acupuncture and psychotherapy as an additional tool. My unique approach involves providing holistic mental health intervention including acupuncture, cupping, aromatherapy, and supplements including injectable Vitamin B12, D3, and Tri-Boost in addition to traditional psychiatric medication management. This approach has been shown to provide relief to patients that have not responded to mainstream mental health modalities.
