Psychotherapy
​​​​​
I'm originally from New Haven, CT and have lived in Nashville for 13 years. I've been in the nursing field since 2009, first as an RN then as a nurse practitioner in palliative and hospice care. I've always been interested in being a therapist. I remember it being my first career goal as a child. It was a windy path, but I finally ended up in a position to not only provide therapy but also prescribe medications (eventually) for people seeking mental health care.
