Great to meet you!

With a strong nursing foundation from the Mayo Clinic, I gained valuable insights into patient care. I hold degrees from Eastern Kentucky University and Arizona State University, which strengthened my expertise in mental health. I am dedicated to compassionate, stigma-free mental health care, ensuring each patient feels understood and supported. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming environment where patients can work toward well-being and emotional resilience.

A bit about my approach to therapy

We are committed to delivering high-quality, patient-centered care with a focus on achieving safe and effective outcomes. By incorporating evidence-based research into our practice, we ensure that our approach is grounded in the most current and reliable knowledge. This helps us make more informed decisions, ultimately leading to better results and improved patient well-being.

What you can expect from our first session

In my practice, I create a compassionate, non-judgmental environment where patients feel safe and supported. I focus on setting personalized goals, such as reducing anxiety or depression, developing effective coping strategies, and building resilience. I foster collaboration, encouraging patients to actively participate in their treatment. I prioritize safe and effective treatment approaches that support long-term well-being. I do not prescribe benzodiazepines, as they can pose risks of dependence and long-term side effects. Instead, I focus on medication management, alternative medications, lifestyle modifications, and holistic strategies such as mindfulness, stress management techniques, and referral to a therapist to help patients achieve lasting relief from anxiety and related concerns.

My goal is to provide comprehensive care that promotes stability, resilience, and overall mental health.Unlike traditional long-term therapy, brief psychotherapy does not focus on deeply exploring past experiences or processing intensive trauma. Instead, it enhances medication treatment by addressing immediate concerns and directing patients to further therapeutic resources when necessary.
