Great to meet you!

I am a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC), passionate about providing quality, compassionate, and comprehensive mental health services to adults. I possess strong clinical skills, enhanced by my natural ability to build rapport with patients and families. I follow evidence-based guidelines, blending them with clinical experience, personal observation, and intuition.

As a PMHNP, my role is multifaceted—I serve as an educator, mental health advocate, therapist, and scientist. I value interdisciplinary education and inter-professional collaboration.

My approach to therapy

My greatest strengths lie in blending evidence-based therapeutic approaches with a client-centered, compassionate style. I draw from modalities such as CBT, trauma-informed care, and mindfulness techniques to help clients gain practical tools for lasting change.

What sets me apart is my ability to create a structured yet flexible environment where clients feel supported in both exploring difficult emotions and building concrete strategies for growth. My professional experience working with diverse populations has given me a deep understanding of the many ways people heal, and I bring this knowledge into every session to tailor treatment to each individual’s unique needs.

What you can expect from me

During our first session, we will begin by reviewing your history, current concerns, and goals for treatment. I will ask questions to better understand the challenges you are facing and how they affect your daily life. This session is also an opportunity for you to ask questions, share expectations, and determine whether my approach feels like a good fit for you. Together, we will outline a plan for treatment that reflects your unique needs and priorities.

**I am currently accepting new patients seeking combined therapy and medication management services, as well as those interested in medication management only.

At this time, I am not accepting patients whose primary interest is therapy only, due to limited availability in my schedule.
