Great to meet you!

I provide psychiatric medication management for adults experiencing anxiety, depression, and mood‐related concerns.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative, thoughtful, and grounded in evidence‐based care. I work closely with primary care and specialty providers to support whole‐person mental health through telehealth.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, I focus on getting to know you—your concerns, your history, and what you’re hoping to change or understand. We’ll talk through your symptoms, your goals, and any factors that may be affecting your well‐being so I can form a clear, accurate picture of what you’re experiencing. The pace is calm and collaborative, and there’s no pressure to share more than you’re ready for. By the end of the visit, we’ll outline a plan for next steps so you know exactly what to expect moving forward.
