Great to meet you!

Hi my name is Gail! I'm a double board-certified nurse practitioner, and Certified Integrative Mental Health Professional (CIMHP). My passion for mental health is driven by a commitment to break down the stigmas and provide care that sees beyond symptoms to the whole person. I believe that true healing comes from a holistic approach, to manage and improve mental wellness. In my practice, I prioritize creating an open and inclusive environment where every individual feels safe and supported. I treat adults ages 20+

A bit about my approach to therapy

My approach to providing care is rooted in a compassionate, laid-back style paired with an unwavering commitment to listen deeply to each client’s unique story. I believe in treating the whole person, not just the symptoms. My holistic, person-centered approach ensures that all aspects of a patient's health and well-being are considered in their treatment plan.

What you can expect from our first session

In every session, I aim to create an open, affirming space where clients feel safe and valued. I encourage patients to be active participants in their care, empowering them with the knowledge and support they need to navigate their mental health journey successfully. By choosing to work with me, clients can expect a partnership based on respect, empathy, and commitment to their long-term well-being.
