Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
Founder & Owner, Nuovo Psychiatry LLC

My journey into psychiatry began working on inpatient psychiatric units, in emergency departments, on medical-surgical floors, in state psychiatric hospitals, eating disorder programs, and detox centers — caring for individuals during some of the most vulnerable moments of their lives.

Those experiences shaped not only my clinical approach, but the kind of provider I wanted to become. The connection I made with those patients was my sign to chase this dream.

I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Monmouth University, and I am a member of the Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing. My clinical training and practicum experience spanned a diverse range of settings — hospitals, outpatient clinics, primary care, and private practice — giving me extensive experience caring for people with a wide variety of psychiatric and mental health needs. The preceptors and leaders who helped me grow also inspired me to go further.

So I founded Nuovo Psychiatry — “nuovo” meaning “new.”

I founded Nuovo Psychiatry with the belief that mental healthcare should feel more accessible, compassionate, and genuinely supportive. I want to provide a new experience for those in need of psychiatric care. Too many people struggle silently or feel unheard within the healthcare system — my goal is a space where patients feel respected, understood, and comfortable being themselves, without judgment.

Whether this is your first time seeking psychiatric care, or you are searching for a provider who better aligns with your needs — you are welcome here.
