I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with experience providing psychiatric care to adults across a wide range of mental health needs. My professional background includes community mental health, substance use treatment, and outpatient psychiatric medication management.
My approach is centered on Thoughtful Prescribing. I take the time to understand the whole person before making decisions about medication. Psychiatric treatment should be more than matching symptoms to prescriptions. I consider your history, current concerns, goals, preferences, and past treatment experiences so we can make decisions together.
I provide psychiatric evaluation and medication management for depression, anxiety, ADHD, mood disorders, trauma-related conditions, and other psychiatric concerns.
Thoughtful Prescribing means using medication with a clear purpose. When medication is appropriate, I focus on finding the simplest effective treatment plan while considering benefits, side effects, interactions, and long-term goals.
My goal is to provide straightforward, evidence-based psychiatric care where you feel comfortable asking questions, understanding your options, and being involved in your treatment.
During the first session, I focus on getting a clear understanding of what brings you in, your symptoms, treatment history, current medications, and what you hope to get out of care. My goal is to create a relaxed, collaborative environment where you feel comfortable asking questions and being involved in decisions. By the end of the visit, we will work toward a clear treatment plan with practical goals and next steps.
