Great to meet you!

A Board Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner who treats adolescents and adults with a wide range of emotional difficulties. I believe a combination of Western, Eastern, and holistic therapies is most beneficial in managing symptoms while overall enhancing one's quality of life. I Specialize in anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, and mood disorders.

My approach to therapy

It is my belief that it is essential to initiate treatment with a thorough psychiatric evaluation and a collaborative plan that engages the patient and family to participate in the overall treatment plan.

What you can expect from me

I treat every patient with an holistic approach. Journeying together to improve the functioning of each individual is the optimal goal. To this end, a combination of lifestyle modification, one on one therapy and/or pharmacologic interventions are utilized.

Let's take the first step together!
