Great to meet you!

Hi there! I am a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with over decade of experience in the nursing field and over four years practicing psychiatry. I have worked in various settings such as acute psychiatric inpatient treatment, corrections, and outpatient private practice as a PMHNP. I graduated from the University of Tennessee Health Science Center with a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My philosophy is that there is a deep connection between the mind, body, and soul. I believe you cannot effectively heal one without placing focus on the others. I pride myself in approaching patient care from a more holistic standpoint. While medication can be helpful in a patient's treatment plan, I equally advocate for therapy, nutrition, and lifestyle changes. Most importantly, I take time to listen to you.

What you can expect from our first session

Clients can expect to walk away feeling empowered with tools that they can utilize to make each day more successful and manageable. My integrative style means that brief therapy will be incorporated into each medication management visit. I will create a treatment plan specifically tailored to you by utilizing an evidence-based approach.
