Great to meet you!

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who works with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, trauma, and other mental health concerns. I know reaching out for mental health care can feel overwhelming, so I want you to feel comfortable, heard, and supported throughout the process. My goal is to create a space where you can be open about what you’re experiencing and feel confident asking questions about your care.

My approach to therapy

I believe good mental health care starts with taking the time to really listen and understand what you’re experiencing. I look at the whole picture, including your symptoms, health, lifestyle, experiences, and goals, rather than just focusing on a diagnosis. I’ll explain my recommendations and treatment options clearly so we can come up with a plan that makes sense for you.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is really about getting to know you and understanding what you’ve been going through. We’ll talk about your current concerns, mental and physical health history, medications, and what you’re hoping to get out of treatment. You’ll also have plenty of time to ask questions, and by the end of the visit, we’ll talk through my recommendations and what the next steps might look like.
