Great to meet you!

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who provides thoughtful, evidence-based telehealth care for adults 18+. With a strong background in women’s health, I understand how closely mental and physical health are connected. I work with people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or just not like themselves — and who are ready for support in finding their way back to feeling more balanced and well.

I support a wide range of mental health concerns, with a special focus on perinatal mental health. My approach is collaborative and tailored to you. Together we may use education, medication management, and practical support for challenges like anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

My approach to therapy

Style of practice: Integrative, Holistic, Patient-Centered, Supportive, Solution-Focused.

What you can expect from me

Taking the first step can feel uncomfortable or even a little intimidating, and that’s completely okay. You deserve care that feels safe, respectful, and judgment-free. My goal is to meet you where you are and walk alongside you at a pace that feels right, so you can start feeling more like yourself again
