Great to meet you!

I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with a Master of Science in Nursing from California State University San Marcos, where I graduated in 2021. Since then, I've provided psychiatric care across the lifespan, with a strong focus on supporting children, adolescents, transitional age youth, and their families.

My clinical experience includes treating a wide range of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, trauma-related conditions, and autism spectrum disorders. I specialize in comprehensive medication management, psychoeducation, and supportive collaboration with families and support systems to improve overall mental well-being.

My approach to therapy

My approach is warm, open-minded, and collaborative. I believe in meeting each client where they are and creating a safe, nonjudgemental space where healing and growth can happen. I partner with individuals and their families to better understand their unique experiences and offer thoughtful, evidence-based medication management and support.

I've worked with diverse populations and am passionate about helping clients feel heard, understood, and empowered in their mental health journey.

I believe healing happens in partnership - and I'm here to walk alongside you with empathy, openness, and respect.

What you can expect from me

During psychiatric evaluations and medication management sessions, clients can expect a thoughtful, collaborative, and supportive experience. I take the time to understand your symptoms, experiences, concerns and treatment goals - not just your diagnosis. Together, well' explore treatment options in a way that feels transparent and empowering.

You can walk away with:

  • A clear understanding of your diagnosis and why certain medications are being considered
  • Education about how medications work, potential benefits, and possible side effects
  • A space to ask questions, share concerns, and be heard without judgement
  • Regular check-ins to monitor progress and adjust treatment as needed
  • A treatment plan tailored to your unique needs and life circumstances

My goal is to ensure you feel informed, safe, and supported every step of the way.
