Here to Help You Heal 

With nine years of experience as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) specializing in psychiatry and family health, I offer comprehensive and attentive care for children, adolescents, adults, and older adults navigating some of life's most challenging transitions. My areas of focus include ADHD, anxiety, depression and mood disorders, OCD, stress, and trauma and PTSD. 

No matter what you’re facing, I take a holistic approach to care, treating the whole person to address symptoms. My goal is to be the kind of provider who encourages mindfulness, coping skills, and stress management for you to be your optimal self. 

 

My Approach to Care 

What grounds my work is a belief that good psychiatric care starts by knowing who a person is and what drives their individual goals. In practice, sessions are structured and purposeful while still leaving room for exploration. Drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and solution-focused approaches, we'll explore your past and inner experiences while working toward the clarity that makes change possible. When medication is part of your care, I bring the same attention to detail to prescribing and management as I do to every other aspect of our work together. 

You can always expect an environment that feels serene and focused, a space where you're heard, your goals are centered, and the plan we build together reflects both your needs and your strengths. 

 

A Journey into Exceptional Patient Care 

My path to becoming a PMHNP began with an innate ability to see patients holistically, as full human beings whose mental health is inseparable from every other part of their lives. This became a calling for me, fueled by the desire to bridge mental health care gaps and build meaningful long-term patient relationships. That same commitment comes with me into every appointment, allowing me to be a supportive psychiatric clinician who sees you fully and invests in your care. 

 

Personal Interests 

Exploring somewhere new, getting absorbed in a good book, and working through a strength training session are my favorite free-time activities, helping me find balance and energy.
