Great to meet you!

As a psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and Diplomate of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine (DipACLM), my mission is to empower you to build sustainable lifestyle habits that will support your long-term mental and physical wellness. My clinical experience includes pediatric behavioral health, high school nursing during the COVID-19 pandemic, addiction treatment, academia as an adjunct professor, and medication management—all of which have strengthened my passion for holistic mental health care.

With over seven years of psychiatric-mental health nursing experience and over a decade of personally embracing a predominantly plant-based lifestyle and being an avid runner, I bring both professional expertise and personal passion to my practice. If you are looking for a nonpharmacologic approach to improving your mental health and quality of life through sustainable lifestyle habits, I am happy to support you!

My approach to therapy

I prioritize the six pillars of lifestyle medicine—optimal nutrition, physical activity, stress management, restorative sleep, social connection, and risky substance avoidance—to help minimize symptoms of anxiety, depression, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), sleep disturbances, and and other conditions as applicable. Medications are incorporated when clinically indicated and used conservatively within individualized treatment plans.

My goal is to inspire you to thrive—body and mind—by providing care that is compassionate and rooted in plants and science!

What you can expect from me

In your first session, you can expect a collaborative conversation centered on your unique experiences, current challenges, and wellness goals. Together, we will begin creating a personalized plan that prioritizes evidence-based lifestyle habits that will support your long-term mental wellness.

My goal is for you to leave your first session feeling heard and empowered to take the next steps in your lifestyle medicine journey. Lifestyle medicine is not a quick fix. It is a commitment to creating sustainable changes that build healthier habits over time. On your journey, I will provide the guidance and accountability to help you accomplish your goals, and you will bring your dedication!

Note: Please complete the new client forms at least 72 hours before your first session to allow adequate time for review.
