Great to meet you!

Hello, I am passionate about supporting you on your path to mental wellness.

As a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, I believe that taking care of your mental health is essential for living a fulfilling and balanced life. I specialize in treating adults ages 25 and above.

Sorry, at this time, I do not accept Employee Assistance Plans.

My approach to therapy

I work closely with patients to ensure they are informed and engaged in their treatment plan, encouraging them to take an active role in their healing journey. While I do not provide therapy, I support the integration of therapeutic services when needed and collaborate with other providers as appropriate. My goal is to use psychopharmacology thoughtfully and effectively to support each patient’s long-term mental wellness.

What you can expect from me

I offer medication management services to support your mental health needs, with both in-person and remote appointments available based on your preference.

During our first session, I’ll conduct a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation to better understand your symptoms, history, and treatment goals. This is also a time for us to get to know each other and begin building a collaborative, supportive relationship.

My focus is on creating an individualized treatment plan that’s evidence-based, effective, and tailored to you. I’m here to guide you through the process and make sure you feel informed and empowered every step of the way.

I look forward to working with you.
