Hi, I’m Debra, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over six years of experience in mental health care. I’m passionate about helping people feel better and live more balanced lives. I believe care should be compassionate, respectful, and tailored to each person’s unique background and values. For me, mental health care is a partnership - we work together to build trust, understanding, and a path toward feeling well.
When you work with me, you can expect a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where you can be yourself. I take the time to really listen and understand what you’re going through. I combine medication management with therapy approaches like CBT and insight-oriented work, depending on what fits you best. My goal is to help you feel heard, understood, and actively involved in your care.
We’ll start by getting to know you - your experiences, concerns, and what you hope to achieve. From there, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan together that may include therapy, medication, or both. I’ll guide you through your options so you can make informed decisions that feel right for you. Along the way, I’ll support you with practical tools and strategies to help you manage challenges and move toward feeling better.
