Great to meet you!

Choosing a psychiatric provider is a personal decision, and I approach that with care. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner specializing in adult mental health, I focus on understanding you as a whole person and creating a treatment plan that fits your life.

I have worked with diverse populations and often see how anxiety, trauma, stress, and executive dysfunction can interfere with work, relationships, and overall well being. I treat adults with depression, anxiety, ADHD, and substance use concerns, with experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings, including complex cases. I especially enjoy working with college students, professionals, and business leaders who are balancing demanding schedules and high expectations. I also collaborate with caregivers and other professionals to ensure well rounded care.

My approach to therapy

My approach is compassionate, patient centered, and evidence based. I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and medication management, using objective assessment tools when helpful to clarify diagnoses and track progress.

I focus on helping you address challenges like focus, burnout, anxiety, and executive functioning so you can function at your best. Together, we build a practical, sustainable plan that aligns with your lifestyle and supports long term well being.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we will review your mental health history, discuss your current concerns, and screen for additional symptoms to form a clear working diagnosis.

We will then collaborate on a plan of care that fits your lifestyle, including treatment options and next steps, so you leave with clarity, direction, and support.
