I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with experience treating a wide range of psychiatric disorders and emotional challenges. I have worked in medical and psychiatric settings since 2007, with a background in acute care, community-based psychiatric and skilled nursing care, and quality assurance. I now focus exclusively on psychiatric care. I value honest, candid, and direct communication, balanced with empathy and respect, to foster strong therapeutic relationships. My practice centers on individualized medication management and supportive interventions tailored to each client’s goals and needs.

​

My approach to psychiatric care is collaborative and holistic, supporting adults navigating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, life transitions, trauma-related concerns, stress-related conditions, attention difficulties, and other mental health challenges. Care begins with a thorough, comprehensive evaluation to understand each client’s history, concerns, and goals. I focus on the whole person, integrating medication management with lifestyle factors.

​

Clients can expect their first session to feel like an in-depth, structured clinical assessment rather than a traditional therapy visit. We review medical, psychiatric, social, and family history to gain a full understanding of each client’s background, current concerns, and goals, supporting accurate understanding and personalized treatment planning.
