I worked as a Registered Nurse at a hospital for about 12 years on a unit that specializes in Mood Disorders, like depression and bipolar disorder, and Eating Disorders. I have been working as a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner since 2018.
I am straightforward and will do my best to meet you, figuratively, where you are. I would like to involve you in a clinically appropriate plan. We will discuss options and I will answer questions before we proceed. I primarily do medication management but supplement with brief supportive therapy.
Working with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and eating disorders has been fulfilling. I listen and do my best to teach the people I work with to combat these symptoms with a variety of tools. I am straightforward but also compassionate.
In our first meeting, we will start with introductions and the reason for the meeting. We will review symptoms and likely come up with a plan that is clinically appropriate and that you think is reasonable. You will have my contact information and be given an opportunity to have your questions answered.
