Great to meet you!

When anxiety, depression, trauma, mood changes, or life's challenges begin affecting your relationships, work, or sense of self, it can feel overwhelming to know where to turn. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and families who are ready to find answers, regain stability, and feel hopeful again. With experience as a physician, registered nurse, and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I bring a well-rounded perspective to mental health care. My goal is to create a compassionate, judgment-free space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to move forward with confidence.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative, culturally responsive, and personalized to your unique needs. I combine evidence-based medication management with therapeutic approaches including CBT, motivational interviewing, family therapy, and trauma-informed care to help you build practical tools for lasting emotional wellness.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know one another in a welcoming, supportive environment. We'll discuss your concerns, history, and goals at a pace that feels comfortable for you. Together, we'll begin creating a treatment plan that helps you feel informed, supported, and confident about your next steps.
