Work History

PMHNP

Advanced Psychiatric Solution
09.2024 - Current
  • As a mental health provider within a personal injury practice, I specialize in diagnosing and managing common acute psychiatric conditions related to trauma, including Acute Stress Disorder (ASD) and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). I provide short-term, trauma-focused care for individuals impacted by high-intensity incidents such as motor vehicle accidents, physical assaults, shootings, and other personal violence. Treatment plans may include psychoeducation, supportive therapy, stress reduction techniques, and behavioral strategies tailored to the acute recovery phase. When longer-term psychiatric care is needed, I ensure timely referral to appropriate outpatient providers for continued management and stabilization. My approach emphasizes early intervention to minimize symptom progression and support functional recovery during the critical post-trauma window.

I evaluate, diagnose, and treat patients ages 6 and up with a broad range of acute and chronic psychiatric conditions. My clinical work includes comprehensive psychiatric assessments, medication management in collaboration with a supervising psychiatrist or MD, and coordination of care with other behavioral health providers. I routinely manage conditions such as ADHD, OCD, Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), Bipolar Disorder (BPD), and Schizophrenia.

Treatment plans are personalized and may include psychopharmacologic interventions, psychoeducation, and referrals to individual, group, or family psychotherapy as clinically indicated. I conduct both initial psychiatric evaluations and ongoing follow-up visits, with a strong focus on symptom stabilization, functional recovery, and longitudinal support. My practice emphasizes a collaborative, evidence-based approach to mental health care across the lifespan.
