Great to meet you!

I have worked as a psychiatric nurse over 12 years and have been in practice as a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner for the past 3 years in a community mental health setting. I graduated from the University of Missouri- Kansas City with a master's in science of nursing. I enjoy working with all ages including children ages 6 and up.

A bit about my approach to therapy

As a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner, I am dedicated to providing comprehensive psychiatric care to individuals across the lifespan. My practice emphasizes the integration of psychotherapy, medication management, and patient education to address a wide range of mental health concerns. I have extensive experience in treating mood disorders, anxiety, ADHD, and other psychiatric conditions.

What you can expect from our first session

I am committed to promoting mental wellness, reducing stigma, and empowering individuals to actively participate in their treatment journey.
