Great to meet you!

I’m a board-certified psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner offering direct, simple, and comprehensive mental health services and personalized care for high-functioning professionals dealing with anxiety and mood disorders. With extensive experience treating conditions like depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, PTSD, and various mood and personality disorders, I’m dedicated to providing compassionate care and ongoing support to my patients.

My approach to therapy

I am committed to delivering compassionate care and fostering a positive patient experience for all individuals under my care. I strive to provide holistic, evidence-based treatment, upholding the highest standards while addressing every aspect of my patients’ health needs. I believe in a patient-centered approach to mental health care, taking the time to listen attentively and collaborate with each patient to develop a personalized treatment plan that meets their unique needs and goals. Utilizing motivational interviewing and supportive therapy, I work to explore and strengthen my patients’ motivations for change.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we’ll go over your mental health history, current concerns, and any specific challenges you’re dealing with. This will help me put together a personalized treatment plan for us to work on in future sessions.
