As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), I specialize in psychiatric medication management and psychopharmacology. My education from Mount Saint Joseph University and advanced psychiatric training from Purdue Global has equipped me with extensive knowledge of psychiatric medications, their mechanisms of action, and evidence-based prescribing practices.

I provide comprehensive medication management for conditions including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, postpartum issues, panic disorders, OCD, and eating disorders. My expertise includes careful medication selection, dose optimization, and ongoing monitoring of therapeutic response. I emphasize precise medication management while considering individual factors such as genetics, metabolism, co-existing conditions, and potential drug interactions.

My approach to medication management involves thorough evaluation of current medications, detailed discussion of treatment options, and close monitoring of medication effectiveness and side effects. I believe in clear communication about medications, ensuring patients understand their prescribed treatments and feel confident in their medication regimen.

Outside of clinical practice, I maintain balance through family time, travel, and fitness – experiences that inform my understanding of how lifestyle factors can impact medication effectiveness.

My approach is deeply client-centered and collaborative, placing your unique experiences and perspectives at the heart of our work together. I begin by actively listening to understand your specific needs, challenges, and goals, recognizing that you are the expert on your own life. Together, we will co-create a personalized treatment plan utilizing evidence-based therapeutic practices tailored to your individual circumstances.

I prioritize establishing a strong therapeutic relationship built on trust, empathy, and mutual respect. This foundation creates a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space where open dialogue can flourish. I encourage authentic self-expression while honoring your pace and boundaries throughout our journey together.

My holistic approach integrates medication management when appropriate, carefully considering how biological factors interact with psychological and social elements of your well-being. I ensure you're fully informed about all treatment options, empowering you to make decisions that align with your values and goals.

I believe in practical skill-building alongside deeper emotional exploration. You'll gain concrete tools and strategies to navigate challenges, while also developing insight into patterns that may be inhibiting your growth. Regular progress assessments allow us to adapt our approach as needed.

My ultimate goal extends beyond symptom reduction to fostering resilience, self-awareness, and lasting emotional well-being. I'm committed to supporting your personal growth journey, helping you build the capacity to thrive independently while knowing that additional support remains available whenever needed.

Throughout our work, I maintain the highest standards of ethical practice, cultural sensitivity, and professional development to ensure you receive the most effective, compassionate care possible.

I provide comprehensive care starting with thorough diagnostic assessments to identify your specific mental health needs, strengths, and challenges. Using standardized tools and collaborative discussions, I develop an individualized treatment plan aligned with your goals and preferences, creating a clear roadmap for our work together.

In our sessions, I utilize evidence-based approaches tailored to your specific conditions. You'll develop practical recovery tools through skill-building exercises, guided practice, and personalized homework that reinforces progress between sessions. I provide psychoeducation about your conditions, helping you understand the factors influencing your experiences.

When appropriate, I offer medication management support, explaining options, benefits, and side effects while monitoring effectiveness and making adjustments as needed. My warm, compassionate approach creates a safe environment where vulnerability and authentic expression are welcomed.

My collaborative style emphasizes our partnership in your healing process. I respect your expertise about your own life while providing professional guidance. I encourage your feedback about what's working and what needs adjustment, fostering your sense of agency in recovery. We'll conduct regular progress evaluations using objective measures and your feedback to track improvements and refine strategies for optimal outcomes.

As we progress, I'll help you build sustainable self-care practices, boundary-setting skills, and resilience strategies that support your long-term stability and well-being beyond our therapeutic relationship. You'll develop increased self-awareness, emotional regulation abilities, and interpersonal effectiveness that enhance your overall quality of life and functioning across various domains. Having supported many through their darkest moments, I know firsthand that healing is possible, even when it seems out of reach.
