Hello, nice to meet you! I’m Frances, a double board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner and family nurse practitioner with 20 years of nursing experience. I provide care to clients across New Jersey, specializing in ADHD, anxiety, depression, and family issues. My Master of Science in Nursing with a specialization in psychiatry was completed at Wilkes University, where I developed a strong foundation in evidence-based mental health care.

As a psych NP, my background includes treating a wide spectrum of mental health conditions, which supports a comprehensive and individualized approach to care.

My care is grounded in consistency, compassion, and evidence-based practice that honors each person’s unique story. I collaborate with clients to develop actionable and individualized steps that help them live their most meaningful lives.
