Great to meet you!

Hello, my name is Janie, and I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). I provide psychiatric evaluations and medication management for children, teens, and adults, specializing in ADHD, anxiety disorders, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD and trauma-related conditions, OCD, autism, and psychotic disorders.

With nearly a decade of experience across outpatient, adolescent, and crisis settings, I combine evidence-based psychopharmacology with a compassionate, holistic approach. I take time to understand the whole person—not just symptoms—to create personalized treatment plans that support emotional, mental, and physical well-being. My goal is to help you achieve lasting stability and hope in your mental health journey.

My approach to therapy

My approach is evidence-based, compassionate, and holistic. I combine scientifically grounded psychopharmacology with a commitment to understanding each person’s unique story. I collaborate with clients to make informed decisions, integrating therapy, lifestyle strategies, and medication when appropriate. My goal is to equip you with practical tools and support for meaningful, lasting change.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, clients can expect to feel heard, supported, and understood. I focus on gaining a thorough understanding of your history, symptoms, and goals so we can create a personalized treatment plan together. I aim to provide a safe and collaborative space where you feel empowered to take the next steps toward healing and growth.
