Narrative Psychiatrists in 10016

I graduated from Rutgers University with a Doctor of Nursing Practice in Psychiatric/Mental Health Nurse Practitioner degree. I am an ANCC board-certified PMHNP-BC with ten years of experience in emergency and psychiatric nursing. My passion for healthcare drives me, and I strive to create a nurturing and trusting environment for you.

I strive to help each patient find their way to live a rich, fulfilling life, by removing those internal obstacles that get in the way of reaching their goals. I take a comprehensive approach, starting with a full initial evaluation of your problems and establishing together the best strategy to tackle them. I believe that deep understanding can lead to long-lasting change. I work with a combination of psychotherapy techniques to help you achieve that change and to relieve suffering. When indicated, I may also recommend medications to treat symptoms that are more disabling.

Hi! I am a licensed and board certified psychiatric nurse practitioner trained at Yale. I offer psychiatric evaluation, therapy, and medication management services via telehealth for NY residents. I speak fluent English, Cantonese, and Mandarin. I treat a wide range of conditions but the most common include depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma, women’s mental health, grief, life transitions, and relationship concerns.

My broad education - medical school at Case, cultural psychiatry at Harvard, residency training at Yale - has helped me understand that people need help throughout life. I treat adults ages 18 and over with a wide range of problems, including anxiety and depression. I can work with you to make sense of tough transitions like grief, relationship issues, balancing family roles, divorce, not meeting expectations at work or school, and medical illnesses. As former advisor to Yale's University Chaplain, I know how people who are suffering search for hope. I teach and supervise psychotherapy at Columbia where I am a full professor.

How long did it take to get you where you are? For most people it has been a really long time. You have had to work so hard to just keep on keeping on. Let's change that!
