Great to meet you!

I am delighted to introduce myself as your Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). My passion lies in depression, anxiety, mood, and, psychotic disorders, dementia/Alzheimer's with behavioral disturbances across ages 18 to 65+. In practice since 2018, I bring a unique perspective to psychotherapy, aiding individuals in discovering their authentic selves. I believe communication is key and will guide our collaborative approach.

My approach to therapy

With a strong foundation in mental health care, my approach is characterized by warmth, understanding, and collaboration. I believe in holistic and individualized treatment, addressing not only symptoms but the entirety of your well-being. I am committed to empowering you through education, embracing diversity, and fostering a safe and inclusive space.

What you can expect from me

In our sessions, you can expect a collaborative and tailored approach, drawing upon evidence-based practices such as psychodynamic therapy. I view our relationship as a partnership, ensuring that decisions about your care align with your unique needs and goals. Confidentiality is paramount, and I encourage open communication and feedback, with a willingness to adjust our treatment plan based on your needs. Continuous learning is a priority to provide you with the best care possible.
