I’ve taken the ADHD Care Pledge to support safe and thoughtful stimulant use

Hi, I’m Emily, a double board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner and family nurse practitioner with 9 years of nursing experience. I provide care to clients across New York, specializing in anxiety, bipolar disorder, burnout, and chronic illness. My master’s in nursing and psychiatric specialization was completed at Yale University, where I developed a strong foundation in evidence-based mental health care.

As a psych NP, I treat a broad spectrum of mental health conditions in addition to my specializations.

My approach involves looking at the client’s entire life—not just their symptoms. In our sessions, we consider daily habits, stressors, relationships, and internal patterns. I believe that clients help shape the direction of their care at every stage and that my role is just to provide steady guidance with warmth and clinical skill.

We’re likely a good match if you…

  • appreciate kindness wrapped in realness
  • are looking for tools that can help you cope with your feelings
  • want to feel valued and understood
  • want help sorting through big life changes
  • are curious about what healthier habits might look like
