Great to meet you!

I’m a dual-certified Family and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 15 years of experience serving individuals, families, and communities across public health, the military, and private practice. My journey began as an Army nurse focused on preventive medicine and women’s health, which shaped my belief that healing is both clinical and deeply personal.

My approach to therapy

I provide medication management and supportive therapy for adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, ADHD, perinatal and postpartum challenges, and mood disorders. My approach integrates holistic care addressing mind, body, and spirit with evidence-based treatment to help you feel grounded and empowered in your healing process.

As the founder of Step Into Your Healing, LLC, I believe that healing has many paths and I’m passionate about creating a compassionate, culturally responsive space where clients can release, realign, and rebuild one step at a time. Each session is a safe space to explore your story, build emotional resilience, and create a plan that aligns with your goals.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is a welcoming space to exhale and be heard. We’ll discuss what brought you to care, explore your goals, and review your medical and mental health history. I’ll share my approach and together we’ll create an individualized plan for treatment. You can expect a compassionate, judgment-free conversation focused on understanding your needs not rushing to a diagnosis. My goal is for you to leave feeling seen, supported, and hopeful about your next steps.
