Great to meet you!

Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a warm, patient-centered approach and extensive experience in outpatient psychiatry, inpatient behavioral health, substance use treatment, trauma-informed care and crisis intervention. Recognized for clinical judgment, ethical practice, and the ability to build genuine, trusting relationships with diverse populations. Integrates medication management with evidence-based psychotherapy to provide holistic, individualized care, foster resilience, and empower patients to achieve sustainable improvements in mental health and well-being.

My approach to therapy

My approach is integrative, trauma-informed, person-centered, solution-focused, and culturally responsive. I collaborate closely with clients and treatment teams to develop individualized care plans, viewing each client as a whole person and not a diagnosis. Clients can expect comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management when appropriate, supportive therapy, and ongoing education.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect a warm, supportive, and judgment-free space where they feel heard and understood. First sessions focus on building trust, exploring goals and concerns, and creating a personalized plan to help clients feel more confident and hopeful moving forward.
