I am a compassionate provider who has worked as a psychiatric/mental health nurse for 15 years prior to becoming a psychiatric nurse practitioner. I strive to develop trust through therapeutic communication with my patients. My goal is to work together to plan and implement the best possible treatment plan based on individual needs.
My approach focuses on patient centered treatment and care. I value the opinions, values, and experiences of those patients I work with. During initial assessments and ongoing sessions, I listen to the needs and goals of clients to initiate and evaluate ongoing treatment that result in optimal outcomes.
Clients can expect to be treated safely without bias in a non-judgement setting. I provide brief psychotherapy and education with follow up sessions when appropriate. I aim to establish a therapeutic and empathetic relationship with all of my clients.
