Great to meet you!

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with a focus on women’s mental health and integrative psychiatry. I specialize in supporting women through anxiety, depression, burnout, life transitions, and hormonal or reproductive-related changes that impact mood and well-being.

My care philosophy blends evidence-based medicine with a holistic lens that considers mind, body, and lifestyle. I aim to create a supportive space where women feel heard, empowered, and equipped with tools to heal from the inside out.

My approach to therapy

I take an integrative and collaborative approach, combining psychiatric expertise with an understanding of the unique biological and emotional factors that affect women’s mental health. Together, we’ll look at the whole picture — including sleep, nutrition, hormones, stress, and lifestyle patterns — to identify what’s contributing to how you feel.

My sessions are rooted in compassion, education, and partnership. I want you to feel both informed and in control of your care, with treatment plans that support balance, clarity, and long-term well-being.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is a thoughtful conversation about you — your story, health history, and what you’re hoping to change or improve. I take time to understand not just your symptoms, but your life context and priorities.

By the end of the visit, you’ll leave with a personalized care plan and clear next steps that may include medication, therapy, or lifestyle support. My goal is for you to feel validated, understood, and hopeful about your path forward.
