Great to meet you!

After working 15+ years as an RN I am so excited to be making a difference as a provider of mental healthcare. Working from home allows me to offer better calendar flexibility to accommodate different schedules and to take care of my aging dogs at home!

I am compassionate and empathetic and here to help you reach your goals and become the best version of yourself.

During my training I worked primarily in community behavioral health. It is my goal to beneficially serve the community and provide support to those who need it while hoping to reduce barriers and stigmas that prevent people from getting the care they really need and deserve. Access is for everyone and I want to be a beacon of that message.

I have a certificate in Spanish for Healthcare Providers and as soon as I become a little more fluent I will be able to extend my services, accurately, into a second language.

My approach to therapy

I believe in building a strong therapeutic relationship- which means we can trust each other. I can trust you to be open and honest with me and you can trust that I am going to listen without judgement and provide treatment options that apply to your specific needs.

I believe you should understand a diagnosis and its treatment so we can collaborate and make decisions together. I will send you education materials about the diagnoses, therapy styles and medications we discuss.

Mental healthcare services are here to offer to you empathetic, nonjudgmental and customizable care.

What you can expect from me

The first session is a sort of meet and greet where we will discuss what has brought you in. We will walk through your health history, medication trials, past diagnoses and family history so it is always nice to be familiar with this information!

We will discuss your goals and what you are hoping for/expecting out of our visit. I will give you feedback, discuss options and we can make decisions together on how to proceed.

We do not need to rush or prescribe anything the first day - this is your choice! I can provide options so you can take your time and look things up and make an informed decision. I will be accessible to you if you have any questions or concerns throughout any part of your treatment.

I hope to see you soon!
