Great to meet you!

I am a prescriber with experience in a state hospital setting, treating individuals with serious mental illness and managing complex psychiatric needs on both an inpatient and outpatient basis. I am also open to working with clients experiencing less acute concerns such as anxiety, depression, and insomnia. I provide compassionate, client-centered care across a range of mental health needs for adults ages 18 and above.

My approach to therapy

My ideal clients are individuals seeking relief from mental health challenges, whether serious mental illness or more common concerns like anxiety or depression. They come to my practice looking for stability, clarity, and hope. With experience in complex psychiatric care, I've seen how life-changing the right medications can be. I support a holistic approach that includes medication, therapy, and lifestyle changes. For those who desire it, I can incorporate Christian/Catholic values into care. I encourage movement and time outdoors as a part of healing and growth.

What you can expect from me

During your first visit, we'll spend time getting to know you as a whole person--not just your symptoms. I'll ask about your life, relationships, medical and psychiatric history, and what you've been experiencing so I can gain a clear understanding of your needs. From there, we'll work together to identify the most appropriate treatment options, including medications if indicated. We'll also explore non-medication approaches such as improving sleep habits, incorporating exercise, and drawing on personal or spiritual supports so that your care plan feels balanced, personalized, and aligns with your values.
