Great to meet you!

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 30 years of nursing experience across diverse clinical settings. I provide integrated psychiatric care that combines medication management and therapeutic support, addressing mental health needs through a holistic and individualized approach.

My approach to therapy

I work compassionately with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, panic attacks, schizophrenia, and ADHD. My goal is to support overall well-being by delivering evidence-based care tailored to each person’s unique needs. I am committed to guiding patients toward meaningful, lasting change and improved quality of life.

What you can expect from me

I always start with an introductory session, where you’ll have the opportunity to share your story and what you hope to achieve in therapy. We’ll work together to figure this out! I strive to create a warm, welcoming environment that allows you to feel comfortable sharing and being vulnerable, while also feeling secure. From there, we’ll work together in the sessions that follow to make these goals a reality for you.
