Great to meet you!

I am a compassionate Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with dual certification in Pediatric Primary care and Fellowship training in Developmental Pediatrics. I see patients across the lifespan, from toddlers to older adults. I’m passionate about helping children, adolescents, and families thrive.

My approach to therapy

I bring a unique blend of clinical expertise and a warm, approachable style to mental health care. I work closely with families to create personalized care plans that promote emotional well-being and developmental success. Whether navigating behavioral challenges or building coping skills, every step of the process is a collaborative and empowering journey for both kids and parents.

I provide diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of neurodevelopmental and mental health conditions. I strongly believe in a comprehensive approach that isn't just focused on medication management of symptoms.

What you can expect from me

In our introductory session, you’ll have the opportunity to share your story and what you hope to achieve in therapy. We'll identify any current challenges or barriers to treatment and set mutual goals for our work together. From there, we'll discuss treatment options, including therapy and medication management if appropriate. I can provide EMDR and CBT therapy for school-aged children, adolescents, and adults. I look forward to working with you!
