Great to meet you!

If anxiety, depression, burnout, or mood changes are making it harder to function at work, in relationships, or day to day, you don’t have to figure it out alone. I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with 15+ years of experience helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, mood disorders, panic, overthinking, irritability, sleep concerns, and hormonal-related mood changes, including PMDD. My goal is to help you understand what’s happening and create a clear path forward.

My approach to therapy

My approach is structured, individualized, and focused on real progress. We’ll look at your symptoms, history, goals, and patterns to understand what may be contributing to how you feel. From there, we’ll create a treatment plan that may include medication management, therapy collaboration, and lifestyle strategies to support better sleep, emotional regulation, and long-term stability.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is a chance to slow down and make sense of what you’ve been experiencing. We’ll discuss your symptoms, history, goals, previous treatment, and any concerns you have about medication. You’ll have space to ask questions, and we’ll work together to identify clear, realistic next steps that fit your needs.
