I have witnessed the profound effects of mental health challenges both personally and as a provider. Throughout my work in psychiatry, I have observed generic treatment plans, lack of follow-up, and insufficient genuine care for patients. Determined to make a change, I established Cornerstone Behavioral Health where patients are never just another number. We limit the number of patients we see to ensure quality time is given to each patient, forging the best treatment outcomes.

I am a graduate of Kean University and Seton Hall University in New Jersey. As a nationally board-certified Physician Associate (PA), I have had the opportunity to practice in both New Jersey and Texas, treating patients from newborns to geriatrics. My medical expertise includes geriatric and general psychiatry, family medicine, and pediatric medicine. My psychiatric background encompasses psychotherapy, medication management, psychiatric evaluations, and treating psychiatric disorders associated with intellectual disabilities.

Additionally, I have trained Nurse Practitioners (NPs) and other Physician Associates (PAs) nationally in psychiatry and have served as a preceptor for both nurse practitioner and physician assistant students. My career has allowed me to collaborate closely with medical directors in developing clinical education programs for medical staff to ensure quality healthcare for patients.

My goal is to provide customized care that extends beyond the visit, helping patients grow and reach their full potential through mental, medical, and social aspects of life. I am a survivor and a strong believer in the power of resilience. I founded Cornerstone Behavioral Health to break the cycle and aid in the healing process. I personally look forward to helping each one of you achieve your purpose, built on a strong foundation and new beginning.
