Great to meet you!

I've worked in the mental health field for 22 years and I have been a PMHNP for 9 years. I’ve worked with clients of all ages and varying mental health needs. Primarily, I have diagnosed and treated depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and ADHD. In addition, I’ve worked with clients needing help with anger management, sleep disorders, alcohol and substance abuse, and trauma history.

My approach to therapy

I have a very thorough and holistic approach to psychiatric/mental health care. As a PMHNP, I work to gather all pertinent information to help my client in formulating a plan of care that best meets his or her needs. I collaborate with other mental health professionals, such as psychologists and therapists, to ensure a holistic approach in providing care is achieved.

What you can expect from me

My clients can expect to be heard and to receive care that is based on his or her personal needs, as well as evidence based research. My approach is open-minded, empowering and supportive! You will walk away knowing you have a provider that truly cares about you as an individual.
