Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Alex, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing telehealth psychiatric evaluations and medication management for adolescents and adults across Illinois.

I specialize in treating ADHD, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, binge eating disorder (BED), and sleep-wake disorders. I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, and medication management to help patients improve focus, mood, sleep, and daily functioning.

My approach is collaborative, practical, and focused on helping you feel better and function well in your daily life.

My approach to therapy

My approach is patient-centered and judgment-free. I believe in listening first, understanding your unique experiences, and working together to find effective treatment solutions.

I provide evidence-based care for conditions such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, binge eating disorder (BED), and sleep-wake disorders, with a focus on improving overall functioning and quality of life.

What you can expect from me

During your first visit, we will complete a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, review your symptoms and history, and develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.

If appropriate, medication options will be discussed and prescribed. Follow-up visits focus on monitoring progress, adjusting medications as needed, and supporting your long-term mental health goals.
