Great to meet you!

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of experience in both medical and behavioral nursing. I am committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care. I specialize in evaluating and treating conditions such as depression, anxiety, and other mood and stress-related disorders. I strive to create a safe and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their treatment. My goal is to help clients gain clarity, build resilience, and improve their overall quality of life.

My approach to therapy

My approach to care is collaborative, supportive, and patient-centered. I work closely with clients to understand their concerns, goals, and life circumstances so that we can develop a treatment plan tailored to their individual needs. My focus is on helping clients feel heard, empowered, and supported as they work toward improved mental health and overall well-being.

What you can expect from me

During the first session, clients can expect a comprehensive, supportive conversation focused on understanding their concerns, history, and treatment goals. I take time to learn about symptoms, past treatments, lifestyle factors, and any challenges affecting mental health. Together, we discuss possible diagnoses and develop an initial treatment plan that may include medication options, coping strategies, and practical next steps. I aim to create a safe, respectful, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel comfortable asking questions and sharing openly. By the end of the session, clients should leave with a clearer understanding of their symptoms and a collaborative plan for moving forward.
