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

Hi, I’m Jessica, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with 22 years of nursing experience. I provide care to clients across New Jersey, specializing in anxiety, chronic illness, depression, and insomnia. My strong foundation in evidence-based mental health care was established through my master’s degree and psychiatric training at Wilkes University.

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

I tailor my therapeutic approach to the individual’s particular needs and goals. Solution focused brief therapy, cognitive-behavioral, and mindfulness-based approaches are all used, along with medication. I believe in the power of non-judgmental listening, partnership, and collaboration in treatment planning. I aim to empower my patients to openly discuss their concerns with me. My patients find me down to earth and easy to talk to.
