Hi, I’m Kara. I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and a Certified Nurse Midwife with over 20 years of experience in healthcare. My unique background allows me to provide comprehensive care that bridges the gap between physical and mental wellness. I specialize in treating depression and anxiety, with a particular focus on supporting individuals through reproductive transitions and postpartum life.
I believe the best care starts with a strong partnership. Drawing from my background in midwifery and psychiatry, I create a safe space where we can address your mental health with the nuance it deserves. My style is warm and interactive—I’m here to listen, educate, and work alongside you to find a path toward balance. Whether we are navigating depression, anxiety, or life’s major shifts, my focus is on helping you feel like yourself again.
Coming into a first session can be intimidating, so I prioritize building a comfortable and safe environment from the moment we meet. We'll start by exploring your immediate concerns and what you hope to achieve in care. My focus is on establishing a strong partnership; you can expect to leave our first meeting with a shared understanding of your goals and a manageable first step toward feeling better.
